Title:  BO 2-8-0C #1636 - Baltimore & Ohio
Description:  Here's another example of an unusual configuration to last into the 20th century is this camelback center cab model captured by Ralph G. Dunn. Built by Burnham, Wms & Co (Baldwin predecesor) in October of 1896, the camelback configuration was a B&O conversion from the original design. Specs - serial #15020, E-13b, 54" drivers, 180 psi boiler pressure, 22x28" cylinders, engine weight of 168,000 lb, tractive effort of 38,397 lb. Although some sources list the class being retired in 1927, others have the scrap dates in the 1940's. This photo suggests the latter is true.
