Baldwin Loco Drawings available online for free and a 4-4-0 rabbit hole

November 29, 2018 02:40AM avatar
Hello friends,

It appears that both the Smithsonian and DeGolyer SMU are posting pictures of drawings that people (including me) have ordered copies of in the last 3 years that were then digitalized. The Smithsonian 36 online from 202 drawings are the beautiful, really old drawings from before 1890, the scans are not brighter than the original yellowed color but you can zoom in to various locations of the drawing and right click to copy resonable quality png files. Some of the drawings have amazing details from inside boiler to appurtenances like cross head water pumps and injectors.

Most of the sources for Baldwin drawings for 4-4-0s have been indexed on the fine Pacific NG website discussion
On the Smithsonian site are 3 pages of drawings on the last one 6 from the end is Denver & Rio Grand 4-4-0 class 8-18.5C6 and I can't identify it. My best guess is that it is the last order since the date of the drawing seems to be 1882 and Sn 6631-6633 was built in 1883 as road 107-109. I give up, was a nice rabbit hole to fall into...

At the DeGolyer here are definitely scans of drawings that I've order of Brazilian locomotives. 90 drawings so far some part drawings. As I identify the order specs for the drawings I post the information in the Tags.
