Construction and delivery

[edit | edit source]

In all, many Baldwin Class 10-32-D were constructed by the Baldwin Locomotive Works between 1915 and 1927 and they were all delivered to their respective railroads all across the United States of America after their day of construction.[1]

Design

[edit | edit source]

These locomotives had 62-inch diameter driving wheels, a boiler pressure of 180 psi (1.2 MPa), Walschaerts valve gear, 18 in × 26 in (460 mm × 660 mm) to 19 in × 26 in (480 mm × 660 mm), and tractive effort ranging from 24,786–28,158 lbf (110.25–125.25 kN).[1]

Their tenders could hold from 8 to 11 tons of coal and 4,500 to 5,000 gallons of water. These locomotives weighed in from 63.5 to 71 tons (108.5 to 141 tons with tenders).[1]
