Yes Rupert, my father's photo is the same as yours right down to the added text along the bottom of the photo.
On the back of the photo is written details about the engine as follows:
Baldwin-built in 1911 - shop # 36775
Retired August, 1934
Weight 448,000 lbs on drivers, boiler pressure of 200 PSI, tractive force of 93,000 lbs.
Original water injection system was later modified and engine eventually converted to burn oil.
Originally used in Galesburg yards; last days of service were on western divisions around Alliance, NE
