Davenport Saddle Tank Switching Locomotive, 0-4-0 ST, 1922
01
Artifact Overview
This locomotive was built for industrial switching service. Its gauge -- the width between its wheels -- is just two feet rather than the standard four feet, eight and one-half inches. Instead of using a conventional separate tender, the locomotive carried water in a tank set atop its boiler and coal in a bin on the left side of its cab.
