D&H H-Class locomotive #1600, the first one built, and was the last one in service,\u00a0having been scrapped December of 1952. The Erie ordered their three 0-8-8-0 “camelbacks”, from ALCo in 1907. After borrowing one of the Erie’s for use as a test pusher on Ararat, the D&H ordered 13 of these locos for themselves, also from ALCo in 1910-12, #1600-1612.<\/p>\n

This loco is a major brass-bash\u00a0using a Sunset Erie 0-8-8-0 as a base-model. A new, lengthened boiler has been constructed,\u00a0driver\u00a0axle centers have been\u00a0re-spaced\u00a0to accommodate the new\u00a057″ drivers, replacing the original 51″, as was done on the prototype during the D&H Colonie\u00a0Shops 1930-1937 complete rebuilding and upgrading\u00a0of this locomotive series\u00a0.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
