Eric - Thanks. Interesting newspaper articles. Unfortunately, I do not have an image of 3152 to share with you. It's possible another member of this List might have an image. To give you some idea of what 3152 looked like, I'm attaching an image of CB&Q 3156 taken at Gilette, WY, in 1905.
Both 3152 and 3156 were Class D-4-A 2-8-0 type locomotives built by Schenectady (ALCO) in 1903. Your 3152 survived the boiler explosion and was rebuilt, most likely at the Denver Shops. It was retired in November 1930. For their era, the Class D-4-A's were massive freight haulers - Louis

Please see attached. I believe this was ALCO 2-8-0 no. 3152.
Thanks!

Eric - Scan the newspaper article to us. It may give the road number of the locomotive that exploded. Thanks - Louis

Hi folks: I am researching a locomotive boiler explosion on a Burlington route between Billings MT and Sheridan, WY that killed a great uncle of mine (the engineer) and two other men (January 6, 1911). I have the local newspaper accounts, but I'm wondering if anyone can point me to where I might find a record of any internal investigation on the cause, or any photos of this accident.
thanks for any help-
Eric
