Although no date was provided, since the rebuilt loco still has the wide side valence it would place it in the early to mid 1940's. Later it would be removed. The loco was scrapped in December of 1951. hudson specs - serial #45512, 74" drivers, 225 psi boiler pressure, 26x28" cylinders, engine weight of 360,960 lb, tractive effort of 48,919 lb.

SLSF 4-6-4 #1066 - St Louis-San Francisco |
| Description: |
This fine looking 4-6-4 Hudson steam locomotive started out as a Baldwin 4-6-2 Pacific built in 1917 before the SLSF West Springfield Shops transformed it. Starting in 1937-40, the Shops rebuilt the Pacifics into more powerful 4-6-4 Hudsons and even added a wide "semi-streamlined" side valence. By this time in its life, the valance had been removed. It was finally sent to the scrapper's torch in December of 1951. Hudson specs - serial #45512, 74" drivers, 225 psi boiler pressure, 26x28" cylinders, engine weight of 360,960 lb, tractive effort of 48,919 lb. Arthur B. Johnson photo |
