Yeah, I guess we all got fooled on that one, Louis. I too assumed L&B front ends were necessary for burning lignite safely, and I had the same reaction you did about 5030 being used as a switcher in

I'm guessing that the Edgemont-Deadwood branch's 3% grades were what made this run impossible for the K-2's and K-10's hauling 2-3 heavyweight passenger cars. A few of the light K-2's lasted past Wor

Hol - You said in an earlier posting that the C&S never used lignite for engine fuel, except perhaps in an emergency. Looking at the 1935 list of assignments, I see that practically all steam engines

It's an interesting question, given that the Burlington's D-4's and the C&S's B-4R and B-4S consolidations were very close in size, weight, and driver diameters. The C&S's B-4R's (600 series) were a

Hol and Charlie - Consolidations were used as switchers on many roads, including the Burlington. Would the removal of the pilot truck on a D-4 have made that much difference? The G-10's converted fro
