UP C-57 430         
Union Pacific Railroad C-57 2-8-0 430 at an unknown location, on an unknown date, photo by Dick Rumbolz, Chuck Zeiler collection. Unfortunately, I have no information about this photo. This was a negative I purchased from Dick Rumbolz in 1965. He sent a batch of negatives, I selected which ones I wanted, mailed the rejects back to him with a check for what I kept. This particular negative cost me 45 cents. From utahrails.net I determined that this locomotive was built in October 1900 by Baldwin (c/n 18324) as a Vauclain compound and assigned road number 1650, classed C-57. It was later simplified and retired in June 1958.

Gary Everhart General Glad to see you sharing these photos with everyone! This is one great shot! 4/8/2013 6:09:37 AM
Chuck Zeiler General What's sad is what I'm not sharing. Dick Rumbolz would send a couple dozen negatives and/or slides, and I would only pick a few and send the rest back with a check for what I kept. I should have kept everything, but financial resources were tight for a 16 year old railfan. 4/8/2013 12:01:18 PM
