A friend started chatting with me about a supposed CB&Q 4-8-6 steam locomotive. So I went out and checked the Q roster and did not find any 4-8-6’s listed at all. I then went out to see if any such wheel arrangements were ever built.
Turns out that Lima had proposed one but none were built. But then I found out that in 1950, the Q experimented using 5601 (a 4-8-4) putting the 6 wheel truck under the cab to test on branch lines. The test was a failure after less then a year.
Would be interesting to see photos of 5601 during that time.
