The massive main rod and 69" drivers propelled the steam locomotive down hundreds of miles of track. The loco was rebuilt sometime after 1930 with an increase in the wheel diameter to 69 1/2", boiler pressure to 210 psi and the addition of a booster. The improvements resulted in an increased tractive effort from 54,100 lb to 56,200 lb. |
