Rapidly disappearing from the American scene is one of the
most fascinating machines Man ever has been privileged to invent-the
Steam Locomotive. About it hundreds of books have been written and
of it, especially in the last twenty years, an incalculable number of photo-
graphs have been taken. This book will deal with one group of these
machines-those of the Western Pacific Railroad.
The Western Pacific of today, which extends from Salt Lake City,
Utah to Oakland and San Francisco, California, is one of the world's
most modern and efficient railroads, completely dieselized except for
nine steam engines temporarily retained as emergency power, with
centralized traffic control over 916 miles of its 924.5 miles of main line
(exclusive of 178 miles of paired track operation with the Southern
Pacific in Nevada), and operates along with the Denver & Rio Grande
Western and Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, one of the country's most
spectacular and successful trains, the California Zephyr. But is is not the

Western Pacific of today about which we are writing. With full knowledge
of the diesel's efficient but uninteresting supremacy, we are writing of the
glamorous yesteryear of the Western Pacific when Steam was king.
As is probably commonly known, the Western Pacific is the
youngest of the so-called transcontinental railroads, having been organ-

ized on March 3, and incorporated March 6, 1903. Construction began
in Oakland, California and at Salt Lake City, Utah in January of 1906 603
The last spike was driven on a high bridge in the California mountains
at Keddie, near Mile Post 281, on November 1, 1909 and the first
pas-
senger train arrived in Oakland August 22, 1910, although the road
was not formally turned over to the Operating Department until July 1,
1911. In addition to the main line, several branches and smaller railroads
occupy prominent places in the Western Pacific story and about them
there follows a brief outline, considering them from east to west. Detailed
information about any locomotives involved is shown on page 30.
DEEP CREEK RAILROAD: 46 miles south from Wendover to Gold
Hill, Utah incorporated October 11, 1916 to serve the gold mining ter-
ritory and opened for traffic March 12, 1917. Owned by the Western
Pacific. Road had two engines, one passenger and three freight cars.
Was abandoned July 29, 1939, the last train operating the previous day.
LOGGE
RENO BRANCH and the NEVADA-CALIFORNIA-OREGON RAIL-
WAY (Three-foot gauge)
Essentially the present-day 33 mile branch from Reno Junction
(formerly Rainbow) to Reno, Nevada, is related to the N-C-O only by
use of two segments, aggregating fifteen and a half miles, of that road's

former narrow gauge right of way, but the story back of it is quite in-
volved and interesting.
In 1917, the year the Western Pacific entered the Reno picture,
the Nevada-California-Oregon Railway had trackage from Reno north.
235.71 miles to Lakeview, Oregon, via Plumas Junction (formerly "Junc-
tion," "Moran," and "Cuba"), Doyle, Hackstaff, now Herlong, Wendel,
Madeline and Alturas, California. There was also a 39.4 mile branch,
then known as the Sierra Valley Branch of the N-C-O, extending west
from Plumas Junction to Davies Mill, now known as Graeagle, near
Blairsden. Originally this line had been projected to Quincy and con-
struction authorized to Mohawk, but was never constructed beyond
Davies Mill. On March 24, 1917 an agreement was reached to sell to
the Western Pacific the 64.42 mile section between Reno and Hackstaff
and the 39.4 mile branch from Plumas Junction to Davies Mill and the
sale of the total 103.82 miles took place on June 11, 1917 for a price of
$700,435.00.
The WP then started construction of the standard gauge line.
Commencing from the east entrance of the Chilcoot tunnel a new right-
of-way was laid out in a southeasterly direction 2.61 miles to Mile Post
35.00 on the N-C-O just eight-tenths of a mile north of Plumas Junction.
(The Sierra Valley Branch west from Plumas Junction followed a longer
course.via Dinwiddie Creek and on up over Beckwourth Pass.) They then
standard gauged the N-C-O track 7.5 miles to Purdy, now Peavine, on
the California- Nevada state line which was Mile Post 27.5 on the N-C-O,
constructed a new and shorter (by 5.04 miles) line along the south side
of Lemmon Valley via Copperfield and Anderson to the top of the hill
at Mile Post 8.0 on the N-C-O, then standard gauged and followed the
old winding N-C-O line, except for changing the alignment of the
curves, into Reno. Standard gauging of the narrow gauge line was done
by laying rails outside of both narrow gauge rails and narrow gauge
operation continued while standard gauge construction was in progress.
The old N-C-O route from Mile Post 8.0 to Purdy originally fol-
lowed along the north side of Lemmon Valley via Summit, Mile Post 9.75,
Cedar, Mile Post 15.61, and Francis, Mile Post 21.40, but had been
shortened 1.5 miles around 1888 with a change near Summit account
of bad snow conditions.
On January 30, 1918 the last narrow gauge train left Reno and
this must have been quite a sight to have seen. All locomotives and
equipment were placed in one train bound for the new terminal at
Alturas and with blaring of trumpets and roll of drums the train started.
Engines that had not had steam in their boilers for years hissed and
puffed and "got 'er rolling," but the long train failed to make the grade
out of Reno. The second try, though, after backing down the hill, was
successful and thus, during the height of World War I, came the end of
slim gauge operation into Nevada's largest city, and standard gauge
operation commenced February 4.
All the N-C-O track south of Hackstaff and west of Plumas Junc-
tion was then abandoned as these lines roughly paralleled the WP's
own standard gauge route, leaving the N-C-O operating only from Hack-
staff, which was formerly known on the WP as "NCO Transfer," to Lake-
view, a distance of 172.06 miles. In 1922 the 16-mile section between.
Hackstaff and Wendel was abandoned, and the remaining mileage was
taken over by the Southern Pacific and standard gauged to Alturas by
September 29, 1927 following ICC approval on May 3, 1925. Southern
Pacific engines 1618, 1667 and 1670, all 2-6-0's, became standard gauge
N-C-O numbers 24, 25 and 26 in October, 1927, but were returned to
the SP when the line from Fernley to Klamath Falls (crossing the WP at
Flanigan) was completed and opened for traffic on September 15, 1929.

Practically all of the narrow gauge engines went to the Southern Pacific,
two to the now-abandoned Pacific Coast Railroad at San Luis Obispo,
California and the others scrapped. No N-C-O engines ever went to the
Western Pacific.

The start of the narrow gauge was back on December 12, 1879
when the Western Nevada Railroad Company was incorporated to build
a line from Wadsworth, Nevada south to a point near Walker Lake and
eventually to Bodie, California but this never got beyond the paper
stage and plans were changed to build from Reno to Oregon and later
Reno south to Bodie and The Nevada and Oregon Railroad was incor-
porated for this purpose on June 5, 1880. Ground was broken at Reno
on December 22 of that year, but work was suspended after a few miles
of grading had been completed. New management took over and in-
corporated the Nevada & Oregon Railroad on April 25, 1881. The first
rail was laid about a month later and construction proceeded slowly
amid great difficulties. However, on October 2, 1882 regular train
service started over the 31 miles of road just completed to Oneida. In a
few months, though, operations were suspended and after extensive
litigation the road was sold under foreclosure to Moran Brothers of
New York on April 17, 1884. The Moran Brothers had supplied the money
for construction of the line by purchasing the N & O First Mortgage
Bonds. As new owners of the railroad, they placed it in operation again
under the name of the Nevada & California Railroad (not incorporated)
and the line was extended northward. The Moran Brothers formed the
Nevada-California-Oregon Railway (known colloquially as the "Narrow,
Crooked and Ornery") on March 31, 1888 and transferred the property
of the N & C to this corporation on January 1, 1893. The line reached
Hackstaff, the point where the WP was later to cross, by the middle of
1889, Alturas by 1908 and Lakeview, Oregon on January 10, 1912.
The Sierra Valley & Mohawk Railroad Company was chartered
October 1, 1885 to build a line from Junction on the Nevada & California
Railroad (N-C-O) to Quincy, California and fifteen miles were completed
by 1888. The following year rails were extended eight miles to Kirby's
Mill. The road was reorganized January 5, 1895 as the Sierra Valleys
Railway Company and opened for traffic on June 1, 1895. About the
turn of the century it came under the control of the N-C-O, but was
separately operated. On January 3, 1909 it was sold under foreclosure
to a trustee of the N-C-O and on June 11, 1911 a new charter was taken
out for the same line of railroad under the name of the Sierra & Mohawk
Railway Company as successor to the Sierra Valleys Railway. On Jan-
uary 1, 1915 it was consolidated with the N-C-O becoming known as
the Sierra Valley branch. The original project of building to Quincy
was abandoned and the line was built only as far as Davies Mill, a dis-
tance of 39.4 miles from the point now known as Plumas on the Reno
branch of the WP.
A final note concerning the Reno branch: Not shown on any
official map is the Lemmon Valley Branch built during World War II 4.2
miles eastward to the Reno Air Base from Mile Post 21.3, Martin. Tracks
are still in though now seldom used.
BOCA & LOYALTON RAILROAD:
Portola, California eastward
5.7 miles to Beckwith then south 40 miles to Boca on the Southern Pacific,
with a 1.6 mile branch known as Grizzly Creek Spur (later part of the
WP Gulling Branch) extending north from the main line at a point 3.3
miles east of Portola. Engine house and shops were at Loyalton, Mile
Post 19, a wye at Summit, Mile Post 30.5, the Verdi Lumber Company
track crossed at Merrill, Mile Post 33.5 and at Boca there was another
wye, an engine house and a quarter-mile switchback from the end of

the main line at Mile Post 44.85 down the hillside to a connection with
the Southern Pacific. Equipment as of June 30, 1909 included 7 active
engines and as of June 30, 1914, six engines. The Boca & Loyalton was
incorporated September 24, 1900 and opened in 1902 and at that time
was controlled by the D&RG thru ownership of 51% of capital stock.
The Western Pacific purchased the B&L on November 30, 1916 7
but never operated into Boca for authority had been granted November
25, 1916 to abandon the portion south of Mile Post 23 and the tracks
and other facilities were removed in the summer of 1917. During con-
struction westward in 1909 the WP had rebuilt the B&L right of way
between B&L Junction and Portola, 2.7 miles and later it abandoned the
B&L trackage between Grizzly Junction and Beckwith, 2.4 miles, the rails.
being taken up in August 1920, and in 1939 the 2.4 mile Gulling Branch
was abandoned.
The Clover Valley Lumber Company, operators of a large mill
at Loyalton, has trackage rights over the Loyalton Branch, which is the
present name of the remaining B&L trackage between Loyalton and
Hawley, near which latter point their own track connects and extends
fifteen miles or so north into the timber area. The Clover Valley presently
has two steam engines, a 2-6-6-2 saddle tank, No. 4, and No. 8, a little
2-6-2 obtained from the old Hobart Southern Railroad at Hobart Mills,
California. Such information as is available on Boca & Loyalton engines.

NORTHERN CALIFORNIA EXTENSION: Known as the "Inside
Gateway" this 112 mile section thru some of the most rugged and iso-
lated parts of California was completed from Keddie to Bieber on
November 10, 1931 to give the Western Pacific, in connection with the
Great Northern, a north-south route competitive with the Southern.
Pacific. This has been the last piece of major new railroad construction
in the West except for line relocations. Comprising a part of the NCE
is a 5.27 mile section of track between Westwood and Mason belonging
to the Southern Pacific, but over which the Western Pacific has trackage
rights. The Western Pacific also has but does not use trackage rights
north 11 miles from Bieber on the Great Northern main line to Lookout
thence over the Great Northern branch to Hambone, an additional 34
miles, to a connection with the McCloud River Railroad.

INDIAN VALLEY RAILROAD: 21.6 miles from Paxton northeast
through Crescent Mills on the Bieber line of the WP to Engles, California.
Incorporated June 30, 1916 and controlled jointly by the Western Pacific
and the Engles Copper Mining Company. Construction was finished in
June of 1917. Road had two former D&RG engines, two flat cars from
the Boca & Loyalton (B&L Numbers 408 and 409) and two passenger
cars. Road was abandoned in October 1938 and rails removed in the
spring of 1939. The engines sat derelict at Crescent Mills for several
months before being scrapped.

SACRAMENTO NORTHERN RAILWAY: A line formerly oper-
ating electric passenger service between San Francisco and Sacramento,
Woodland, Marysville, Colusa, Oroville and Chico, California, now a
freight-only road operating both electric and diesel locomotives. A
complete history of this line and its several predecessor companies has
been published by "INTERURBANS," the National Electric Railway News
Digest, 1416 South Westmoreland Avenue, Los Angeles 6, California,
and no further information will be attempted here except to say that the
properties between Sacramento and Chico, the former Northern Electric,
では​?
have been owned by the Western Pacific since October 18, 1921, and
those between Oakland and Sacramento, the former Oakland, Antioch &
Eastern and later the San Francisco-Sacramento Railroad (Sacramento
Short Line), since February 1, 1927. Some steam engines were used
during the construction of the OA&E and in the early days three steam.
engines were operated by the Northern Electric, but aside for a short
time during construction, none were ever used on the Western Pacific.
CENTRAL CALIFORNIA TRACTION COMPANY: 53.7 miles be-
tween Sacramento, Lodi and Stockton, California. Incorporated August
7, 1905. Formerly operated frequent passenger service with electric cars
and owned several electric locomotives. Passenger service was discontin-
ued before the War and all freight trains are now handled by diesel
locomotives. Road became jointly owned by the Western Pacific, South-
ern Pacific and Santa Fe on January 1, 1928 and has never owned any
steam locomotives.
TIDEWATER SOUTHERN RAILWAY: Incorporated March 11,
1912, succeeding Tidewater & Southern incorporated October 4, 1910
and Tidewater and Southern Transit Company, February 16, 1912.
Extends 33 miles south from Stockton to Modesto and an additional
16 miles to Turlock. Formerly operated frequent electric car service be-
tween Stockton and Modesto but is now a freight-only line handled by
diesel locomotives. Prior to dieselization, though, it used two electric
freight motors and has had three steam engines on its roster in addition
to use of various Western Pacific locomotives during the fruit season.
Western Pacific acquired the line in March of 1917.

ALAMEDA & SAN JOAQUIN RAILROAD: Organized May 1,
1895 and completed July, 1, 1896 Stockton west to Tesla, California,
36 miles. It was built for the specific purpose of hauling coal from what
were thought to be very fine deposits in Corral Hollow valley. The
Western Pacific purchased this line July 25, 1903 and the portion of the
road from Carbona to Ortega on the southern edge of Stockton is the
present main line of the Western Pacific. From Ortega the A&SJ went
along what today is known as Hunter Street to Hazelton Street and
turned west until it reached Mormon Channel and followed Mormon
Channel to Stockton Channel. It was at this point where the coal was
transferred to barges and river boats and was the Stockton terminal of
the A&SJ. The distance from Carbona to Tesla was 13 miles but the
branch has been cut back to 2.3 miles from Carbona. Poors Manual of
Railroads for 1900 states that the A&SJ had three engines, of which two
became WP 121 and 122, but we have been unable to locate any infor-
mation whatsoever about the third engine.
ALAMEDA BELT LINE: Serves various industries on the Alameda
side of the Oakland Estuary. It was originally owned by the City of
Alameda which owned no engines and had to look to the Southern
Pacific to perform the switching work. In 1926 the Western Pacific and
Santa Fe got together and purchased the line from the City, though the
Southern Pacific continued to do the switching until 1928 at which time
an enginehouse was constructed and two Santa Fe 0-6-0's, 2036 and
2039, were bought and numbered 1 and 2. Later a third engine, Santa
Fe 2045 becoming ABL No. 3, was purchased, and all three served until
the close of the War when diesel power made its typical intrusion. West-
ern Pacific engines were used occasionally on the ABL when its own
engines were being shopped, but no ABL engines were ever used on
the Western Pacific.
OAKLAND TERMINAL RAILWAY: Has various industrial tracks
in Emeryville. Formerly owned by the Railway Equipment & Realty Com-
pany, a Key System holding company, the line was taken over Decem-
ber 2, 1942 by the Western Pacific and Santa Fe. One steam engine,
No. 4, had become Santa Fe 2447 and was later sold to the Modesto &
Empire Traction Company as No. 9 who sold it for scrap in April of 1952.

Salt Lake City, 2.4 miles east of the Union Station. Distance from Oakland Pier to Salt
Lake Union Station is 5.9 miles less, or 924.5 miles.
The line goes through forty-three tunnels, three of which are over a mile long,
(Spring Garden, Chilcoot and Hogan) aggregating almost 46,000 feet, rises from an
elevation of 7 feet at Oakland with a ruling grade of just 1 percent to 5018 feet at
Reno Junction, the highest point in California, to 5866 feet at Jasper, Nevada, highest
point on the line, at Mile Post 752.7, thirteen miles west of Shafter. Between Weso, 3.5
miles east of Winnemucca, and Alazon, near Wells, the WP and SP have paired track
operation, all eastbound traffic of both roads being over the Western Pacific and west-
bound over the Southern Pacific.
Previously mentioned have been the Reno, Loyalton and Carbona branches. In
addition to these and considerable industrial trackage in San Francisco, Oakland, San
Jose, Stockton, Sacramento and Oroville and long spurs at Blairsden (See Note), Gray's

(1)
Narrow gauge. Transfer of lading only. No interchange of cars.
(2) Not much is known about this railroad. It was built about 1910 and extended
about twelve miles south from Golconda, probably following Rock Creek in its
ascent to Adelaide Mine on the eastern face of the Sonoma Range, and was used to
haul gold and copper ore to a small smelter at Golconda located between the SP
and WP tracks. The mine was owned by Noble Getchell and George Wingfield who
held patented claims and it is our understanding that former President, Herbert
Hoover, worked as a mucker in the mine. Rolling stock of the railroad, which was
narrow gauge, consisted of a number of ore cars and two locomotives.
We are indebted to Mr. George E. White, analytical chemist of Lovelock, Nevada,
for this information. Railroad was abandoned in 1917 or 1918.
Track connection and crossover, but no interchange of cars.
This point was formerly known as Red River Junction and traffic was interchanged
with the Red River Lumber Company.
(5) Trackage rights. No interchange of traffic.

The Western Pacific took over the Ocean Shore main line from Alemany Boulevard
and San Bruno Avenue in San Francisco to Potrero and 25th Street and their in-
dustrial lead from Jerrold Avenue to Illinois Street paralleling Army Street. Today
this section is referred to by the WP as their Ocean Shore Lead.

The foregoing pages have shown how the Western Pacific is
made up and now, before turning to a discussion of the locomotives.
themselves, here is a look at the places where they were serviced.
With the construction of the main line, nine roundhouses were
built and except where otherwise indicated each had eight 95-foot stalls
and an 80-foot turntable. Other engine facilities were also used and will
be described in east to west geographical order along with the regular
roundhouses.
SALT LAKE CITY: Western Pacific used the roundhouse of the
D&RGW.
SEER FEES
BOROND
KNOLLS, UTAH: Located 39 miles east of Wendover, a small
roundhouse was constructed here in 1909, but when the first engine was
put in a stall it sank but finally raised and recovered after much difficulty.
Inspection showed that the ground was soft and entirely unusable so
roundhouse was torn down without ever being used.
WENDOVER, UTAH: Built in 1910. Three garden tracks added
in 1911. In 1937 two stalls were extended to 140 feet to accomodate
the forthcoming articulated engines (401-407) and the turntable re-
placed with a 120-foot unit. Boiler from engine 75 was installed to
replace one of the original stationary boilers. Two more garden tracks
were added in 1945 and in 1949 the boiler from engine 10 was installed
to replace the other original boiler. In 1951 a one-stall diesel engine
house was built near the depot and the entire roundhouse facility was
retired.
ELKO, NEVADA: Built in 1909. In 1937 a 120-foot table was
installed, two new 140-foot stalls built and one stall lengthened to 140
feet. In 1943 four additional 140-foot stalls were constructed and in
1944 two garden tracks were added. In 1952 half of the roundhouse
was removed to make room for the construction of a new diese! mainte-
nance building having two tracks with a capacity of two units each. In
1953 the remaining half of the roundhouse was dismantled.
WINNEMUCCA, NEVADA: Only change made here was the
installation in 1942 of a 120-foot table. Original roundhouse was built
in 1909. In 1951 a one-stall diesel engine house was built near the depot
and the engine terminal retired and dismantled.

HO
CHONE
Page 11
GERLACH, NEVADA: Built in 1909. Until 1932 this was the
junction of the Eastern and Western Divisions. The original roundhouse.
was destroyed by fire October 30, 1914 and a new 7-stall house con-
structed on the same site in 1915. On April 22, 1927 this too was de-
stroyed by fire and never rebuilt. Roundhouse tracks etc. were taken
up in 1939 and water facilities retired in 1950.
RENO, NEVADA: With the purchase in 1917 of the Reno to
Hackstaff and Plumas Junction to Mohawk sections of the Nevada-
California-Oregon Railway, the Western Pacific also acquired the ter-
minal facilities of that road at Reno which included an 8-stall brick
narrow gauge roundhouse and a 55-foot turntable and a fine brick
station. The WP never used the roundhouse for engines although in 1917

the narrow gauge turntable was replaced with an 80-foot standard
gauge unit. The roundhouse and adjoining industrial buildings were
desroyed by fire in 1940.
LOYALTON, CALIFORNIA: The Boca & Loyalton maintained a
4-stall engine house and machine and car shops inside the wye at this
point, there being no turntable, but the Western Pacific abandoned these
facilities after it bought the road in 1916. The original station is still in
use but the shops and enginehouse have been dismantled.
PORTOLA, CALIFORNIA: Built in 1910. In 1923 four additional
stalls were constructed and in 1925 the original 80-foot table was re-
placed with a 110-foot unit. A two-track 8-unit capacity diesel house
has just been completed and the steam roundhouse and other facilities
dismantled. Portola has been the junction of the Eastern and Western
Divisions since April 24, 1932.
KEDDIE, CALIFORNIA: A 4-stall wooden-frame corrugated iron
sheathed roundhouse with 120-foot table was built here in 1931 and is
still in use, though of course not by steam engines.

BIEBER, CALIFORNIA: The 4-stall engine house is owned by the
Great Northern, though Western Pacific engines were serviced here.
Diesel engines now run through to Klamath Falls on the Great Northern.

OROVILLE, CALIFORNIA: Built in 1910. In 1926 a 110-foot
turntable replaced the original 80-foot unit. 6 stalls were added in 1937
and in 1943 four more were added along with a shop area and the shop
area was extended in 1947. Aside from the shops at Sacramento, Oro-
ville is the principal diesel maintenance point on the railroad.
Page 12

SACRAMENTO, CALIFORNIA: This is the site of Jeffery Shops.
Original plant had an erecting shop with ten transverse pits and a
machine bay. This was extended in 1924 by the addition of five new pits.
and a longer machine bay. In 1938 the facilities were again expanded
by construction of a new three-track longitudinal erecting shop and
machine bay adjoining the old shop on the west side. Also at Sacramento
at the same location are car shops and other general shop facilities.
STOCKTON, CALIFORNIA: Built in 1910, the original three-stall
wooden roundhouse with 80-foot table was located at Sacramento and
7 Acacia Streets at the old Flora Street yards. The roundhouse was de-
stroyed by fire on December 13, 1914 and a temporary new structure
was built on the same site and was used until about 1925 when the Flora
Street yards were retired and yard and engine terminal facilities moved
to the present location south of town where a ten-stall reinforced con-
crete house with 80-foot table was built. In 1938 the table was replaced
with a 110-foot unit and in 1943 one stall of wooden construction and
a leanto cleaning room were added. Entire unit is still in use and Tide-
water Southern engines, as well as WP, are serviced here.
TESLA, CALIFORNIA: A 57-foot turntable was installed by the
A&SJ in 1896 which was retired by the Western Pacific in 1939. There
was no roundhouse at this point.
OAKLAND, CALIFORNIA:
A two-stall addition was constructed
in 1943 for servicing diesel engines and the turntable was replaced with
a 110-foot unit.
SAN JOSE, CALIFORNIA: A 4-stall roundhouse with an 80-foot
turntable was built in 1923 and is still in use, though by diesel engines.
SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA: In 1910 a 48 x 95 foot frame
engine house was constructed which was retired and dismantled in 1923.
In 1944 a 25 x 70 foot diesel engine house was erected. Western Pacific
trackage in San Francisco is isolated from the rest of the railroad, cars
being barged between there and Oakland.

WESTERN
PACIFIC
Of the 208 steam locomotives that have been on the rolls of the
Western Pacific, all but thirty-one of them were delivered new. Of these
208, the railroad started business in 1909 with just over half this many,
not considering engines used in construction which did not become a
part of the regular roster. There were sixty-five 2-8-0's, numbers 1-65;
thirty-six 4-6-0's, numbers 71-106 and twelve 0-6-0's, numbers 151-162,

byrg
Page 13
all new machines, plus two second-hand 4-6-0's acquired with the
Alameda & San Joaquin Railroad, a total of 115 engines. The succeed-
ing years saw the acquisition of the only 2-6-0, three more 4-6-0's, one
more 2-8-0 and four more 0-6-0's to round out the smaller power. Later
forty-one 2-8-2's were purchased of which five were disposed of within
one year, ten 2-6-6-2's, ten 2-8-8-2's, ten 4-8-2's, seven 4-6-6-4's and
six 4-8-4's.

The steam engine reached its zenith on the Western Pacific in
1938 with the delivery of four 2-8-8-2's from Baldwin and seven 4-6-6-4's
from Alco. (See Page 75.) But for almost thirty years the bulk of the
passenger service had been handled by the 71 and 86 class 4-6-0's-
trains with names typical of the era: Pacific Express, the "1915 Mail,"
Panama-Pacific Express, Salt Lake Passenger, Overland Express, Oroville
Express, Capitol Limited, Stockton Express, Atlantic Coast Mail, Scenic
Limited and Feather River Express, and in later years these engines even
occasionally were used on the Exposition Flyer and Royal Gorge, al-
though these two trains were usually hauled by the ex-Florida East
Coast 4-8-2's and SP-patterned 4-8-4's. The first passenger train over
the new line back in 1910 was powered by 4-6-0's, the 104 from Salt
Lake to Elko (see Page 80), 89 to Winnemucca, 84 to Gerlach, 94 to
Oroville and the 92 from Oroville to Oakland.
The diesel made its first appearance in 1939 in the form of three
600 HP switchers and in May of 1940 GMC's big demonstrator growler,


0000
all four units and 193 feet of it, showed up on the WP after having ex-
hibited its drawbar busting ability to several other western roads. An
ironical passage is quoted from the May 9, 1940 Oakland Tribune.
"Railroad men pointed out, however, that marvelous as the new giant
is, it will never replace entirely the old 'iron horse' on the railroads. This
engine would be economical for certain runs only, they said, and would
not be practical for all hauls." Unfortunately, an erroneous prognostica-
tion.
This was the beginning of the end for Steam. By 1942 eight 660
HP switchers and three 5400 HP four-unit freight engines were in service.
In 1943 eight 1000 HP switchers and three more big freight jobs had
been added. Except for four of the oldest engines on the system and two
others that had been in wrecks, the steam motive power was all intact
up until the fall of 1937 at which time the Western Pacific did something
it was many, many times to regret in just four years: It scrapped twenty-
two of its remaining thirty-five husky little Alco (American Locomotive
Company) 4-6-0's and one worn out Baldwin 2-8-0. Hirohito and Tojo
must have known.
Page 14

The War temporarily saved many another WP steam kettle, but by
the end of 1947 time was running out and with 39 diesels then in service.
including the first of the three-unit passenger engines, sixteen more of
the smaller steamers were condemned. Things looked up a bit in 1948
with just one engine leaving the roster, but that was just the lull before
the storm, for in 1949, 1950 and 1951 the boom was lowered on eighty-
one more including all the remaining 4-6-0's except No. 94. By June of
1952 all of the high-stepping 4-8-2's upon which so much care had been
lavished in 1936, were gone, and all ten of the great 2-8-8-2's and all
7 seven of the new 4-6-6-4's were eliminated practically in one blow. The
close of 1953 saw only nine steam engines left on the roster: three
2-8-0's, one Mike and three 0-6-0's and two Northerns, with a total of 77
331
diesels in operation. Two other engines remained on WP property, No.
26 which now has been donated to Travel Town in Griffith Park in Los
Angeles and was still being worked on, and 4-6-0 No. 94 which will be
retained permanently for historical purposes. The nine will be held as
standby power until they are due for flues.
For the next few years it will still be possible for the enterprising
soul, if he likes desert driving, to see a Western Pacific steam engine in
service for switchers 156 and 158 were sold to the U. S. Gypsum Com-
pany at Gerlach, Nevada and are in service there under the herald of
that company.
In 1951 high hopes were held that another WP engine might be
saved for it was then that the Sierra Railroad decided that it needed
another unit of non-diesel power and gave serious consideration to both
203 and 334. The 334 was rejected, so we are told, because of too great
axle weight, and the two roads could not get together on a price for
the 203. It was also rumored that the SP wasn't too enthusiastic about
ferrying either of these engines down to Oakdale on its branch line, and
of course the Santa Fe branch from Riverbank with its light rail was out
of the question. Both engines were in fine condition and there were many
among rail enthusiasts who were mighty unhappy to see the deal fall
through. The Sierra subsquently purchased a 1930 vintage Baldwin
2-6-6-2 compound from the Weyerhauser Timber interests at Klamath
Falls, Oregon, and, as No. 38, it is now in service on the Sierra.

Since about 1929 there has not been much change in the appear-
ance of the steam engines. Most of the Mikes that did not come equipped
with the Elesco feed-water heaters had had them applied by that time
and most of the engines had had the headlight position changed from
the top of the smokebox down to the center; the enamel medallion had
replaced the letters "WESTERN PACIFIC" on the tender and enamel
number plates had replaced painted numbers on the engine cabs. There
were, though, six distinct styles in the stenciling and other appearance

Page 15
of the engines from the years 1906 to 1929 which are illustrated and
explained on Pages 82 and 83. Further, for comparison purposes, Page
84 shows how each of the four groups of original new engines appeared
in 1906, 1908 and 1909 before any changes were made.
For fuel the Western Pacific used both oil and coal. Coal was
used extensively though not exclusively Winnemucca and east and prior
to 1928 many of the engines were changed back and forth between coal
and oil as one particular fuel became cheaper than the other. Coal was
not used west of Winnemucca and in later years all engines on the
Western Pacific were oil burners except a few of the Baldwin 2-8-0's, a
few 4-6-0's, eight 2-8-2's and all of the 4-6-6-4's.
Aside from steam engines there are a few other pieces of equip-
ment that are of passing interest: Two motor cars, two Budd rail cars,
two wooden coaches, five former Sacramento Northern cars and two
ferry boats.
Motor cars 198 and 199 were built by Brill in 1922 and arrived
at Sacramento December 7th of that year and placed in service on the
San Jose Branch in May of 1923. They were sold for $415.00 each in
December of 1939 to the Georgia Car and Locomotive Company.

Two Budd RDC's (Rail-Diesel-Cars) called "Zephyrettes," pur-
chased new in 1950 provide tri-weekly schedules between Oakland and
Salt Lake which more or less replaces the fine but little used service
offered by the Royal Gorge which was discontinued September 14, 1950.

Wooden combination car No. 401 was coach No. 2 on the Boca
& Loyalton Railroad and was used on the Reno, Loyalton and Calpine
branches prior to the War but was retired November 5, 1937. Car No.
402 which, along with engine 94, is being retained for historical pur-
poses, was No. 550 of the Denver & Rio Grande and was used on that
road's Farmington branch out of Durango, Colorado when it was stan-
dard gauge. The WP acquired the car on January 8, 1925 for use on the
Reno branch.

Five ex-Sacramento Northern interurban trailer cars, numbers
1021-1025, were used during World War II between Halls Flat and West-
wood, 37 miles to bring lumberjacks in from the woods on Friday nights.
and take them out again on Sunday nights. After the war the cars,
numbered WP 451-455, remained at Westwood for a few years and
were finally brought to Sacramento where one became an office and
the others scrapped.

The Ferry "Telephone," an ex-Columbia River craft built at Port-
land in 1903 and purchased by the WP in 1909 provided the original
connecting service between the Western Pacific's pier in Oakland and
San Francisco. But because she was a single ender, though one of the
fastest boats on the Bay, she was not altogether satisfactory for ferry
service, and was retired in 1917 and dismantled in 1918. She was of
wooden construction and her specifications were as follows: 632 gross
tons, 565 net tons, 201 feet long at load water line, overall width 37
feet, with a 6-foot draft and stern paddle wheel.
While the Telephone was not scrapped until 1918 she had been
inactive for five years due to the purchase in 1913 of a new boat, the
"Edward T. Jeffery," designed especially for Bay use and built by Moore
& Scott in Oakland in 1912 and 1913. She worked between San Fran-
cisco and the Western Pacific's pier in Oakland until World War I when
she was assigned to the Alameda Southern Pacific Mole run by the United
States Railroad Administration. During this time the Western Pacific slip
was not used, WP trains, as well as Santa Fe, using the Southern Pacific
pier in Oakland. With the close of the War, this steamer, later named
the "Feather River," again met Western Pacific trains at their own pier

in Oakland, an arrangement that continued until May of 1933. At that
time the WP and SP entered into an agreement whereby WP trains
would operate in and out of the SP's pier and the ferry was turned over
to the Southern Pacific who changed her name to the "Sierra Nevada."

She was used mostly between Oakland and San Francisco but occasion-
ally saw service as a relief boat for the Northwestern Pacific between
San Francisco and Sausalito, making the trip in 22 minutes compared
with 32 minutes for the regular boats and was known as the fastest boat
on the Bay.
She was leased to the Key System in January of 1939 and painted
orange and began service from San Francisco to Treasure Island on
February 27. It ran throughout both World Fairs in 1939 and 1940 then
went back to the Southern Pacific and though still painted orange, was
used as a relief boat. During World War II it was acquired by the United
States Government, painted gray, designated as YFB 62, sent to Wil-
mington and operated by the Wilmington Transportation Company for
the United States Maritime Commission on shipyard runs in 1942 to 1945.
It was returned to the Southern Pacific at Oakland after the War and was
used on relief runs, still painted gray. It was sold in 1947 to the Rich-
mond-San Rafael Ferry Company, painted white and went into operation
on May 30th. The old veteran returned once more to the Southern Pacific
San Francisco-Oakland Pier run on April 5, 1954 to pinch-hit for the
"Eureka" and "Berkeley" which were both tied up under repairs. She
was returned on April 8, 1954 to Richmond where she is still in service.
Her future, though, is very much in doubt for a bridge is being built on
the ferry route. Let us hope that somehow she may escape the wrecker's
crow-bar and torch. Her hull is of steel, upper works of wood, of 1587
gross tons, 1025 net tons. Length of hull at load water line is 219 feet,
breadth 36 feet, draft 11 feet and overall width 62 feet 6 inches and
had a seating capacity of 1150 passengers when in passenger service.

Total initial cost for all steam engines excluding the five 2-8-2's
that went to the Wabash was $9,357,040. Total disposition value was
$882,357, about enough to buy one four unit diesel and two 1000 HP
switchers.
ADDITIONAL HISTORY AND INFORMATION ON
CERTAIN LOCOMOTIVES
Not all Western Pacific locomotives had any interesting history
beyond what has already been shown in the general and individual
rosters, but for those that did, the information is shown below on this
and the following pages.

The only engine of the Baldwin-built "mud-hens” (1-20) that was
not converted from slide to piston valves. First of the Baldwin
2-8-0's to be scrapped.


One of only four Western Pacific Steam engines that has not been
(or will not soon be) scrapped. In December of 1953 the railroad
authorized donation of this engine to "TRAVEL TOWN" in Griffith
Park, Los Angeles. It was cleaned up and put in first class appear-
ance at Jeffery Shops, sent to Los Angeles and formally pre-
sented at 2:00 P.M. March 21, 1954, by Gilbert Kneiss, Assistant
to the President of the Western Pacific. It is now on permanent
display along with several other steam engines from western
railroads, among them being Santa Fe 664, Southern Pacific
3025 and Stockton Terminal & Eastern 1, an ancient 4-4-0.
One of the three remaining 2-8-0's. Now in stationary boiler
service at Portola.

One of four American consolidations that was not converted from
slide to piston valves. Other three were 39, 44 and 58. Laid dead
at Oakland from 1932 until November 1939.

Though never converted from slide valves, was in more or less
active service (at Sacramento and Stockton during her last years)
until just a month before being scrapped in September of 1947.
First 2-8-0 to be scrapped.
Like the 39, was in active service until shortly before being scrap-
ped in September of 1947 though it was never converted from
slide valves.
Along with the 61, was the last 2-8-0 to have headlight moved
from top to center of smokebox.
Not converted from slide valves. Laid derelict at Oakland from
October 1930 until November 1939 when it was hauled to Sac-
ramento for scrapping.
Hauled the "Comstock Express" from Portola to Reno and return
on the first railfan excursion over the Virginia & Truckee (via WP
from Oakland to Reno) on June 6, 1938.
First of the Alco (American Locomotive Company) 4-6-0's to be
scrapped.
To be sole remaining steam power on the railroad. Shopped in
February of 1953 and equipped with wooden pilot and painted
to appear nearly as she looked when built (see Page 94) in 1909.
Hauled first passenger train from Gerlach to Oroville and in
recent years has handled several railfan excursions. Now stored
at Oakland.
Highest numbered of the Alco 4-6-0's. Along with 71 and 76,
was the last of the 4-6-0's to be scrapped.
Formerly Alameda & San Joaquin Railroad Numbers 1 and A-1,
and 2 and A-2, these were the first of seven older and smaller
engines acquired by the Western Pacific, which took over the
A&SJ in July 1903. They were renumbered to 121 and 122 pre-
sumably in 1905 but continued to be used principally in other
than main line service. The 121 worked on the Quincy Western
(Now Quincy RR) in July of 1916 and on the Tidewater Southern
on various occasions, was set aside in February of 1934 and
scrapped in December of the same year. The 122 worked on
the Deep Creek Railroad after the road's engines were scrapped
and concluded her active career in December 1947 on the Tide-

water Southern and was broken up in April of 1950. A more com-
plete record of these two engines apparently is not available,
so if any reader can furnish further information or pictures of
them as A-1 and A-2, it would be appreciated.
Formerly B&L No. 4. Oldest engine and only 2-6-0 on the Western
Pacific. Built in 1876 for the Virginia & Truckee as their No. 24,
the "Merrimac," it was sold in 1901 to the Verdi Lumber Com-
pany (see map) becoming their No. 2. It was acquired
by the
B&L in 1902 and went to the WP on November 30, 1916 when
the WP purchased the B&L. The engine was on Western Pacific
property and probably used by the WP prior to actual purchase
for the records show that it was shopped at Jeffery Shops on
November 25, 1916 and though there is no record to substantiate
it, it was probably renumbered from B&L to WP at that time.
Aside from other Boca & Loyalton engines that were acquired
with the railroad and scrapped without being renumbered, the
123 along with 127, was the first engine to be scrapped by the
WP. This engine was quite similar to Virginia & Truckee 13
(later 15), the "Empire," and Virginia & Trukee 20, the "Tahoe,"
as well as several other V&T 2-6-0's. The Empire went to the
Pacific Portland Cement Company at Gerlach, Nevada as 501
in 1924 and was presented to the Railway & Locomotive Historical
Society in 1938 and is now stored at the Western Pacific round-

house at Oakland. The Tahoe was sold in 1942 to the Bong Con-
struction Company at El Monte, California and is now in the
process of being restored by the owner, Mr. Clifford Bong, along
with other members of the Southern California Chapter of the
Railway & Locomotive Historical Society. The 123 was last in
service in November of 1924 and scrapped at Sacramento in
June of 1930.
Formerly B & L No. 5. Obtained second-hand in November 1916
with the Boca & Loyalton Railroad purchase. It was built for the
Cincinnati, New Orleans and Texas Pacific, a part of the Southern
Railway System, as No. 55 and subsequently 555 and 589 of
that road. It went to the B&L about 1905. In later years, as WP
124, it was used principally on the Terminous Branch and the
Tidewater Southern. It was set aside in October of 1947 and
broken up in November of 1949, being at that time the oldest
locomotive on the road.
Formerly B&L No. 7. This was the last of the B&L engines to come
into the Western Pacific numbering system. It was built in 1888
for the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie Railroad, coming to the B&L in 1905
and to the WP in November 1916. Had Class 2 repairs at Jeffery
Shops August 23, 1928 and was used from then until October
1930 on the Tidewater Southern when it was set aside. Serious
consideration was given to shopping her, but on April 10, 1931,
ample power being available to the Tidewater Southern and
because the estimated cost of repairs was too high-in excess of
$3000.00, she was permanently retired, but wasn't scrapped until
December of 1934.
Former D&RG 546 and RGW 39. Purchased August 9, 1917 from
the D&RG for $4000.00. Left Salt Lake August 10th for Elko
where it was shopped at an expense of $2526.00, renumbered
to WP 126 and sent to Burmester, Utah on August 27 for use on
the Tooele Branch. Sold January 23, 1918 for $7500.00 to the
Tidewater Southern Railroad but didn't move west until after it
had been converted to oil at Elko in February of 1918. Last used
on the Tidewater Southern (No. 1) in November of 1946 and
127
scrapped at Sacramento by the WP in October of 1947 after
the tender had been removed and put on the 124. This engine
was under WP ownership for only five months which probably
explains why there are no known photographs of it as a WP
engine.
Former D&RG 549 and RGW 42. Purchased August 9, 1917 from
the D&RG for $4000.00. Left Salt Lake City with the 126 (546)
August 10, and sent to Jeffery Shops for repairs which were
accomplished at a cost of $667.00. Ready for service September
15, 1917 and sent back to Burmester for duty. Returned to
Sacramento and converted to oil in May of 1918. It was last
used in December of 1923 and finally scrapped at Sacramento
in June of 1930. Driving wheels were salvaged and applied to
the 126 (TS 1).

five years before seeing service on the WP.

These engines were pur-
chased on September
17, 1927 from the Unit-
ed Commercial Com-
pany, Steuart Street,
San Francisco for an
cost of
approximate
$16,000 each. The 163
has been scrapped; the
others are stored at
Oroville, Stockton and
Oakland.
Purchased in June of 1936
for an average cost of
$12,500 each and rebuilt
at Sacramento at an aver-
age cost of $33,364 each.
These engines took over
(from the 71 and 86 class)
the Oakland to Salt Lake
passenger runs, until re-
placed by 4-8-4's and then
diesels, and in later years
were often used on the
Feather River Express
which ran only between
Oakland and Portola.

were used with diesel cab
units 801-A, 802-A and

months the Royal Gorge
was on the timetable. See
Page 77.
Used almost exclusively between Oroville, Keddie and Portola
and between Keddie and Bieber, though during the war years
were occasionally used in helper service between Stockton and
Niles. 203 and 208 were also used between Stockton and Oak-
land during the week or two following the earthquake in July
of 1952 which tied up the SP and Santa Fe between Bakersfield
and Mojave. 202 was the first one to be scrapped, the 208 the
last. The tender from 204 was put on the 303 when that engine
was converted to oil. See Page 78.
Used almost exclusively in the Feather River Canyon-Oroville
to Portola, and in later years a few of them were in service be-
tween Keddie and Bieber. All off the roster in May of 1952 and
scrapped shortly thereafter.

as USRRA Heavy Mikados.
Were coal burners on the
EJ&E and converted to oil
by the Western Pacific in
1938. Renumbered from
EJ&E to WP at Elko in
March and April 1920.

Built in April of 1921 but not delivered to the Western Pacific
until June of 1922.

The engines were built for
the United States Railroad
Administration in 1918 and
assigned to the Western
Pacific in February of 1919.
They were unsatisfactory
from almost every respect
and were run only about
30,000 miles each in their
401
to
407
year's time on the WP and
sold to the Wabash in Feb-
ruary 1920. Record does
not show where the engines
were assigned from the
time they were built until
they went to the WP. All
were scrapped by the Wa-
bash in 1951 and 1952.

2nd 322 be equipped with Elesco Feedwater Heaters.
2nd 323
2nd 325 First 2-8-2 to be scrapped.
Used in fast freight service between Elko and Salt Lake. All were
coal burners and were last used on the Western Pacific in August
and September of 1950 though the 402, 404, 405, 406 and 407
each put in several thousand miles service on the Union Pacific
in October of 1950. They were returned to the WP and set aside
in November of 1950. The 402 had gone to the Chicago Railroad
Fair in 1949 to participate in the pageant "Wheels a-rolling,"
but was returned to the Western Pacific in August. All seven of
these engines were officially removed from the roster in May
and June of 1952 and were scrapped shortly thereafter.

306
Constructed from the same plans as SP 4460-4469. Only 483
and 486 remain in existence, being stored at Stockton in standby
service and haven't been used since January of 1953. 481, 484
and 485 were sold without tenders to the Southern Pacific at
Sacramento for parts, tenders being converted by the Western
Pacific for use with snow-fighting and MW equipment. 482 was
sold in its entirety for scrap.

DC 1 Purchased from the D&RG in 1917. Was Rio Grande Western No. 36 and became
DRG 543 in 1908. Same class engine as WP 126 (TS-1). Scrapped September 1930.
DC 2 Purchased from the D&RG in 1917. Was Rio Grande Western 597. Scrapped in
January 1939. Was last used in March of 1938.
Purchased from the D&RG in December 1916. Scrapped December 1939. Was Rio
Grande Western No. 142 and became DRG 661 in 1908. Records of the WP show
that this engine was stored at Jeffery Shops March 1, 1915 and that it was in
Boca & Loyalton Service from April 1915 to June 1916 and then again stored.
IV 2 Purchased from the D&RG in December 1916. Scrapped December 1939. Was Rio
Grande Western No. 149 and became DRG 668 in 1908.
NOTE: These two engines were apparently borrowed or leased by the WP from the
D&RG as early as 1914 as records show that the 661 (IV 1) and 668 (IV 2) were
assigned respectively to the Western and Eastern Division of the WP on July 1,
1914. It is probable that the engines remained on the WP until the Indian Valley
commenced operation in June of 1917.
TS 1 See WP 126 Went into service on the Tidewater Southern February 1, 1918.
TS 32 Purchasea from the Sierra Railroad in April of 1940. Renumbered to 132 on
June 16, 1941 to avoid confusion with WP 32 which often used the same round-
house (Stockton). Tender damaged at Stockton December 22, 1952 and replaced
with tender from Sierra Railroad No. 18 which had been set aside for scrapping.
The 132 is used on the Tidewater Southern only during the late summer and fall
fruit rush, but has been assigned to work on the Sacramento Northern, Stockton
Terminal & Eastern and the WP proper on various occasions. In previous years it
has come all the way to Modesto on the Tidewater Southern but in 1953 it worked
only as far as Manteca. Present information is that it will be retained indefinitely.
NOTE: Although the Tidewater Southern was an electrically operated railroad until
1948, various steam engines are known to have worked on the line. Apparently

available of its disposition. DRG 714 was used from July to September 1914 and
returned to the D&RG in February 1917. Western Pacific engines 94, 99, 122,
124 and 125 are also known to have worked on the Tidewater Southern at various
times. All business except as mentioned above is now handled by diesels.

No information.
Became Western Pacific No. 125.
Miscellaneous notes picked up from old correspondence files of the WP show B&L
3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 as having been assigned to the Western Division on July 1, 1914;
that the 3 was in Jeffery Shops August 1, 1914 along with the 5 and that No. 6 was
awaiting shopping at Loyalton this same date. Further, that the 4 (123) was not a
coal burner on the WP; that the 3 was still at Sacramento on January 1, 1915 and
the 6 still at Loyalton January 1, 1915.

Like all railroads during the war, particularly western ones, the Western Pacific
was short of power and on July 16, 1943 inquired of the Southern Pacific about possi-
bility of buying-not leasing-several heavy Pacifics (4-6-2's) but the SP was having
same sort of trouble too about that time and informed the WP that they had none for
sale. The same month the WP considered buying some D&RGW Pacifics, but decided
against it due to age and performance of engines.
Since the war two other foreign line steam engines have,operated on the WP.
Virginia & Truckee 12 operated between San Jose and Oakland on an excursion train
on May 1, 1949, ran in connection with Keddie Jubilee on November 1, 1949 and
operated out of Reno on an excursion train in June of 1953. Virginia & Truckee 21
steamed from the Oakland roundhouse to the freight slip on three occasions, twice being
ferried to San Francisco, once for the Maritime Exhibit and once for a run over the old
Market Street car tracks for a fund raising drive, and once to be ferried to the Alameda
Belt RR slip to operate in the celebration of the anniversary of the first transcontinental
train.

This book, the culmination of more than a year's actual preparation and twenty
years' interest in and photographing of Western Pacific steam power, is comprised of
four major sections. The first thirty-four pages, or first section, provide a brief historical
background of the Railroad and its affiliated lines, a system map, a rough sketch map
showing the early eastern California and Western Nevada operations and a table
showing the present division and subdivision set-up. There are notes on engine terminals
and miscellaneous equipment, complete specification data and history of every steam
engine ever owned with additional history on certain engines, a roster of diesel loco-
motives, a roster of steam engines of subsidiary lines and such material that was avail-
able on other steam engines that entered into the Western Pacific story.
Typical views, in full-page-size, of twenty-five of the total of twenty-six different
classes of steam engines are presented in the second section, pages 36 to 61. Pages 62
thru 67 show engines of special interest the 94, the 86 with snowplow, on a cold
grey day at Portola in the winter of 1937, the 121 as it looked about 1910, and a steam
engine from two of the Western Pacific's wholly-owned subsidiary lines No. 2 of the
Deep Creek and No. 1 of the Tidewater Southern, for a short time (August 1917 to
January 1918) WP's own No. 126. Pictures of the 26th class, the engines that went to
the Wabash, are on Page 93, but since there are no known pictures of them as WP
engines, they are not shown in Section 2.
-
Page 68 starts the forty-six page miscellaneous section train and general
views, additional engines of special interest, some old-time shots and special pictures.
The final section, Pages 114 thru 138, was published for interest of model
builders and for those individuals who might want more specification data than appears
in the rosters. Here are shown official Mechanical Department side view drawings of
engines and tenders of each of the twenty-five classes with an accompanying picture
which, in most cases, is of the opposite side of the engine to that shown in the second
section. Having no left side view of No. 123, the only engine of its class, we are show-
ing in its place on Page 119, a near mate, the old Virginia & Truckee "Empire," taken
at the Western Pacific roundhouse in Oakland in January of 1953.
Despite our original hope that a concerted effort would turn up pictures of
engines 123, 126 and 127, the only ones of the entire steam roster (aside from the
Wabash engines) we do not have, none were to be found. To the best of our knowledge
they have never been photographed as such, so in order to have the roster photo-
graphically as well as historically complete we have had an artist friend from Cranleigh,
Surrey, England, Mr. Richard Ward, make a composite of each from information we
were able to furnish. We think you will agree that he has done a technically and
artistically excellent job and we believe the engines are accurately portrayed, the 123
purporting to show the engine as it might have looked on the Loyalton Branch in 1918
or 1919, the 126 at Elko in the Fall of 1917, and the 127 somewhere in the desert,
possibly Delle or Tooele, in 1923. Lacking a good photo of No. 125, we have had Mr.
Ward also make a painting of this engine as it looked in 1928 or 1929.
In our work on this publication a sincere effort has been made to achieve
completeness and accuracy (though in a few instances information was just not avail-
able) and the wholehearted cooperation of the Western Pacific has been of inestimable
value. We therefore extend grateful thanks to Mr. Gilbert Kneiss, Assistant to the Presi-
dent, Public Relations, who made possible our access to the records; to Mr. E. E. Gleason,
Chief Mechanical Officer, and Mr. M. W. Brown, Chief Draftsman, Jeffery Shops, for
their courtesy and efforts. Notwithstanding the pressure of theirownwork these men spent
an entire, uninterrupted day with us on our initial trip to Sacramento in quest of infor-
mation, and were unfailingly courteous and helpful on each of our several subsequent
trips for the same purpose. Our thanks also to Mr. Erich Thomsen of the Engineering
Department and Mr. Arthur Lloyd of the Public Relations Department in San Francisco
and to Mr. Peter Del Moro of Jeffery Shops, for extensive data painstakingly gathered
and furnished, and to Mr. Adolfo Rodriguez, Files and Records Clerk at Jeffery Shops,
for his patience in digging out old records from the vaults. We wish also to thank Mr.
William Pennington, Western Pacific engineer of Portola, and Mr. Wilbur Whittaker of
Mill Valley, California, for the many pictures they made available to us, Mr. Charles
Felstead of Chicago for the use of the Wabash pictures, the Wabash Railroad for fur-
nishing information requested, and Mr. Ralph Demoro of Alameda, California and Don
Roberts of Portland, Oregon, for complying with a hurried request for a look at their
Western Pacific photographs; Mr. David Myrick for his help on the N-C-O history,
Douglas Richter and Roy Graves for their assistance, plus many others who lent a hand
with the book. And lastly, on a sad note, we wish to make a public acknowledgement
of the many old-time pictures furnished by our good friend Bob McFarland of San
Francisco, who passed away June 27, 1954.

INFORMATION RECEIVED JUST PRIOR TO GOING TO PRESS.
Engines 33 and 40 were vacated from roster August 31st. Engine 164 operated
under its own power from Oroville to Gerlach to relieve ex WP 158 which was being
shopped. It returned leaving Gerlach August 17th. This undoubtedly will be the last
steam operation on the Western Pacific east of Oroville except for possible future ex-
cursions behind Engine No. 94.
Yes, the steam engine is gone from the Western Pacific and the
rumble of the diesel has replaced forever the wonderfully incomparable
note of the ten-wheeler's whistle and the mellow steamboat chime of
the 4-8-4 on the Route of the Feather River. Never again will be heard
the exhaust of the "Little Mallet" on the High Line, the "Big Mike" in
the desert nor the graceful 4-8-2 as it races along the Sacramento
Valley. But one thing is certain: These beloved steam engines played a
vital role in bringing this railroad up the ladder of prominence from a
position of relatively small importance to one of vast strength and worth,
not only by virtue of the transportation it offers, but as the stimulus for
building industries and communities in every area it serves. Today, be-
hind the big EMD's passengers on the California Zephyr ride on a train
second to none through territory of unequalled beauty and enchant-
ment; freight, much of it in roller-bearing cars, is speeded to its destina-
tion faster than ever before. Now the steam locomotive's glory is
passed its work is done, and the mass-produced diesel will carry on.
But for a few minutes, through the pages of this book, the exciting past
can be re-lived. So take a trip with us now back to the era when Steam
ruled the rails. We hope you have a pleasant journey.
