TP & W 4-8-4s

Classic Trains General Discussion

I’m looking for more specifications for the Northerns Don Ball described as the shyest in America. Wes Barris’s site has some information that I used in my Locobase commentary (found on the same site). What I’d like is locomotive-diagram level stuff - tubes and flues counts and diameters, firebox heating surface, max axle loading. A TP& W diagram would be nice as well.

Can anyone help?

Thanks (and let me know what I can do in return).

Mork calling Orson, Mork calling Orson, come in Orson. I gotta go find Orson for you.[8D]

OK, OK, you found me…!

Taluga: email me offlist, and I’ll send you whant I can. While I don’t have the erection drawings for the 80’s, I do have the road’s class diagrams, as well as dozens of photos.

“Orson” was the answer indeed. He supplied me with the TP&W diagram that gave me all the data I was looking for.

Thanks for the passalong,SSW9389!
