One last post for the night...
Extreme lengths for the locomotives only - excluding tenders....
front of
Pilot beam to - "BOF" Back of Frame
Or
front of
Pilot beam to - "COS" Center of Joint* (between engine and tender)
*
There was a "Striker plate", or buffer mounted to the back of the engine and the front of the tender at the joint. Both different from each other, they separated the engine and tender by approx 9 inches
C16 - 294.375 - BOF
C17 - 319 - BOF
C18 - 329 - COS
c19 - 320 - COS
(all measurements taken from folios, and could be incorrect)
