Noel - I've got a number of right and left hand side views of 5601 from construction to scrapping. Only in the Baldwin Builder's Photograph does the round Baldwin Builder's Plate show on the left hand side. In all other later such views there is no builder's plate showing. The plate might've been removed early in the locomotive's service life during an overhaul or following some kind of incident. I'm inserting and attaching the Builder's Photograph:

 

 

The round builder's plate is located just about directly above the cylinder. As for 5608, it was the first of 13 additional 4-8-4's that the Q built themselves at the West Burlington Shops. Baldwin supplied the boilers. The earlier 5600 through 5607 were all constructed at the Baldwin Locomotive Works in Philadelphia, PA. Best Regards - Louis

5608 - Without digging out my CB&Q book, I find no CB&Q #5608 in my (complete) BLW records

Plates would have been standard 9 1/4" round BLW plates

I am looking for the information contained on the Baldwin builders plates for 05 engine numbers 5600 thru 5608.

I would appreciate information on #5601 in particular. I am aware of the W. Burlington plate on pg 143 of Corbins book, but I need a Baldwin plate.

Thanks

Noel Crawford
