Data from the 1924 TH & B Locomotive Diagram book supplied in May 2005 by Allen Stanley from his extensive Rail Data Exchange. Works numbers were 65359-65360 in November 1923.
The diagram shows that 27 sq ft (2.51 sq m) of the firebox heating surface was represented by arch tubes. No separate figure for superheating surface is published; Locobase uses the figure for the Canadian National engines described in Locobase 5087, which were built around the same time by the same builder and had very similar dimensions.
Largest, heaviest engines ever built to a TH&B design and was fitted with 14"(356 mm) piston valves. Last hand-fired locomotives allowed to run in the United States. Scrapped in 1955, 1952.
Data from 1924 TH&B locomotive diagram book supplied in May 2005 by Allen Stanley from his extensive Rail Data Exchange. Works number was 53287 in 1913.
Lone Pacific fitted with larger cylinders and boiler than the superheated 4-6-0s. Firebox heating surface includes 28 sq ft (2.6 sq m) of arch tubes. Steam admission through relatively large 14" (356 mm) piston valves.
Scrapped in 1950.
