Summary
edit
| Description |
English: This locomotive was one of 135 Class B-15 Moguls acquired between 1903 and 1910 by the Boston & Maine Railroad. The 2-6-0 signifies two lead wheels, six drive wheels, and zero trailing wheels. Steam engines are called out by the number of their lead, drive and trailing wheels - this particular configuration is known as a "Mogul". 1455 was the sole survivor of the B-15 class Moguls, considered the symbol of the light and backwoods branch lines of the B&M. In 1956 it still ran on commuter trains out of Boston's North Station to Clinton, MA. Thereafter it was displayed at the Edaville Railroad in South Carver, MA and then sat by itself in Hyannis and Rochester, MA before being acquired by the Danbury Railway Museum in Connecticut where it currently resides on static display. |
