CNJ 4-6-0C #162 |
Description: |
Good photo by an unknown photographer of Central Railroad of New Jersey 4-6-0C camelback ten wheeler #162. Built by Alco-Brooks around 1901, this camelback had the fireman in a rear position while the engineer rode alone in the cab. Several pros and cons have been made about this configuration but it eventually died out as engines became larger. No date was given so an approximate one was used. |

Description: |
Beautiful action shot of the 1900 Alco-Brooks built 4-6-0 ten wheel camelback as its running with its passenger cars. You can easily see the distance between the engineer and the fireman at the back of the camelback loco. Note on back "C.N.J. 162 east with #722 nearing Westfield, NJ. 10/14/47". Specs - L5Ds class, 69" drivers, 210 psi boiler pressure, 20x28" cylinders, engine weight of 201,500 lb, tractive effort of 28,974 lb. The 111 camelbacks in the class were rebuilt and superheated by CNJ during the years with a variety of upgrades to several components. Some lasted in mixed service into the 1950's. Robert P.
