MILW 2-8-2 #326
Description:
Nice example of a USRA heavyweight 2-8-2 Mikado built by Alco-Brooks in September of 1918. Oritinally it was marked CM&StP 8617, but in 1938 it was renumbered to MILW 326. After serving the Milwaukee Road for nearly 35 years, it was retired in June of 1953. Small discrepancy here - this photo is dated August of 1953 after its supposed retirement date of June, 1953 listed in the Alco records..There is another photo in this album of it sitting in the scrap line at Bensenville in June of 1953 so the photo is mismarked. Specs - L3 class, 63" drivers, 200 psi boiler pressure, 27x32" cylinders, engine wt of 320,000 lb and tractive effort of 62,949 lb. This is a Burns photo.
