American Freedom Train at Mennen Sur |
Description: |
Reading T1 Northern #2101 is temprorarily transformed into American Freedom Train #1 to handle the tight clearances in the east. From July 23 to July 25 of 1976, she made her Morristown visit at the home of Mennen Speed Stick (the Mennen facility in Morris Plains). T1 #2101 began life in the Reading Shops in 1945. Because it was wartime, new locos could not be built, so she was "rebuilt" from a I10sa 2-8-0 (Baldwin 1923). |

AFT 1 getting orders on the fly |
Description: |
I had worked 3rd at Edgewood tower and been relieved, but stayed around to wait for the American Freedom Train to go by. Rainy day it was but this train still needed to get copies of a DR order handed on to operate against the current of traffic on number 1 track at Gunpow interlocking. In the distance operator Jack L. hands up orders to the conductor. |

AFT 4-8-4 #1 - American Freedom Train |
Description: |
Restored cosmetically to one of its paint schemes while it served on the American Freedom Train, this former Reading 4-8-4 T1 class locomotive #2101 actually started out as a 1923 Baldwin built 2-8-0 Consolidation. Needing more power, the Reading Shops (with help from Baldwin) converted 30 2-8-0 Consolidations into 4-8-4 Northern style locos. The locomotive was pulled from the Streigel Supply Company (scrap yard) and remarkably overhauled in just 30 days back in early 1975. After two years of serving as one of the American Freedom Train steam locomotives, it was retire and converted to the Chessie Steam Special which ran another two years. A disasterous roundhouse fire ended her active career. She was donated to the B&O Museum where she underwent cosmetic restoration. Unknown photographer. |

AFT 4-8-4 #1 - American Freedom Train |
Description: |
Here is another view taken by an unknown photographer while on display outside the historic B&O raoundhouse at the Museum. One interesting sidenote from an AFT website states that when this locomotive was fully ballasted with coal and water, it could produce more pulling power than a 707 jet at take-off. |
