MP 2-8-0 #118 - Missouri Pacific |
Description: |
During a 5 year period, Baldwin, Alco-Schenectady and Alco-Brooks built 173 of these 2-8-0 Consolidations for Missouri Pacific. Note the sharp looking marker lights. Does anyone know if that is a spark retention ring hanging in front of the smoke stack? Date is approximate - no photographer was listed. |
