TP & W 4-8-4s

Posted by Anonymous on Monday, January 30, 2006 12:06 PM

I'm looking for more specifications for the Northerns Don Ball described as the shyest in America. Wes Barris's site has some information that I used in my Locobase commentary (found on the same site). What I'd like is locomotive-diagram level stuff - tubes and flues counts and diameters, firebox heating surface, max axle loading. A TP& W diagram would be nice as well.

Can anyone help?

Thanks (and let me know what I can do in return).
