Atchison, Topika & Santa Fe 2-10-10-2 Locomotives

The first 2-10-10-2s were constructed in 1911 by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad at a cost of $43,880 each. They were built out of existing 900 & 1600 class 2-10-2s with new front engines and tenders from Baldwin. They were used between Bakersfield and Barstow and up to San Bernardino. The boilers could not sustain pressure and after ten years, the 10 locomotives were remanufactured into 20 3010 class 2-10-2s. The tenders survived intact for many years used behind some of the 2-10-2s.
