Ran across this on ABPR. It is a 4-6-0 of the long defunct Missouri & Arkansas, but looks strangely like the ex-Nickel Plate 4-6-0 at Steamtown. Is it a sister engine? http://abpr.railfan.net/abprphoto.cgi?december02/12-13-02/m+a18.jpg ryarger@rypn.org |

Bob: I queried Bob Albert of the Nickel Plate Road Historical Society and here is what I got back- NKP Class P 4-6-0 #300, originally #40 (2nd) built by Brooks (s/n 38827) in December 1905; sold to AC&Y on 5/9/20 for $10,250 as their #300; sold to Missouri & Arkansas as their #18 on 9/30/36. The ex-NKP Class P at Steamtown is #304, originally #44 (2nd) built by Brooks 12/05 s/n 38831. I would say you have an eagle eye there Mr. Yarger!
