50 Years of Progress in Burlington Locomotives

Front:
50 YEARS OF PROGRESS 3000 Side by side on the World's Fair grounds, these Burlington pas- senger engines illustrate a wonderful evolution in railroad motive power. The little 35 was the Pride of the Prairies in 1882, and rolled up an incredible mileage in its day. It is still in perfect running condition. ***** The 3000 is the most powerful 4-6-4-wheeled type locomotive in the world. It heads the Burlington's crack six-car exhibition train at the Century of Progress Exposition. 35 انت را COMPARISON IN BURLINGTON LOCOMOTIVES Burlington Route Length Weight Boiler Diameter Dimension of firebox Diameter of drivers Length of boiler tubes Tractive effort Water capacity of tank Coal capacity of tender No. 35 55 feet 142,000 lb. 4½/3 feet 24 x 6 ft. 5½ feet 2231 feet 12,880 lb. 2750 gals. 7 tons 24\\ No. 3000 93 feet 2 in. 718,000 lb. 8 feet 8 x 11 feet 612 feet 4674 feet 59,400 lb. 15,000 gals. 24 tons
