BM 4-6-2 #3628 - Boston & Maine |
| Description: |
This Alco-Schenectady Pacific type locomotive looks ready to roll with steam up and tender loaded above the cab! This was a P-2b class unit with 73" drivers and producing 200 psi boiler pressure. No date was listed so this is a "guess-timate". With help from Stu Nicholson and especially David Hutchinson, the location has been identified as the New Boston Terminal. Warren W.
