The Toledo, Peoria and Western Class H-10 was a class of six 4-8-4 "Northern" type steam locomotives that were built by ALCO's Schenectady Works for the Toledo, Peoria and Western Railroad in 1937.[1][2]
History
In 1937, the Toledo, Peoria and Western Railroad (TP&W) purchased six 4-8-4 "Northern" type steam locomotives from the American Locomotive Company and classed them as the class H-10.[1][2]
These locomotives were numbered as 80-85 and were the lightest 4-8-4 "Northern" type steam locomotives ever built for a North American railroad, weighed in at 361,000 lb (164,000 kg; 164,000,000 g; 164 t).[1]
Not a single one of them were preserved, all six of them were cut up and scrapped.[1]
