Here is a beautiful builder's photo of an Alco built Mountain-type locomotive for the Rock Island line. Interesting to note is the Worthington Company eventually acquired Alco in 1964, long after its railroading heyday was over, only to go defunct in 1969. |

Original specs - class 1929/M-50, 74" drivers, 200 psi boiler pressure, 28x28" cylinders, engine weight of 727,750 lb, tractive effort of 50,430 lb.

| Description: |
While stopped at the Englewood station, the engineer keeps a watchful eye for a signal from the conductor to move. This good looking Alco-Schenectady 4-8-2 Mountain type locomotive was delivered to Rock Island in October of 1929. Later in 1939-40, the class was modernized with Timken roller bearings, disk-type drivers and Timken lightweight side and main rods and then reclassified as M-50a. The loco served for nearly 34 years before being retired and sold for scrap in February of 1953 as the diesel were jumping on the Rock Island roster. Specs - M-50, 74" drivers, 200 psi boiler pressure, 28x28" cylinder, engine weight 375,350 lb, tractive effort of 50,430 lb. No photographer was listed for the photo. |
