I've always been fascinated by the old Burlington mallies. Based on the
pictures I've seen, the Q's T-1 had to be the ugliest engine ever produced.
Of
course the Burlington never tried for "pretty", especially when it came to
steam. Not being a mountain RR, Burlington must have been a bit out of its
realm
with respect to mallies (case-in-point: the little Black Hills branch, where
the mallies had trouble staying on the track).
Interesting stuff. Dale Reeves
