Description:  The DMIR 2-8-8-4 Yellowstone type steam locomotive was 128 feet long, weighed over 400 tons. Its tender could hold 26 tons of coal and 25,000 gallons of water and would generate a boiler pressure of 240 psi. The tractive effort was a massive 140,000 lb!

DMIR 2-8-8-4 #229 - Duluth, Missabe & Iron Range
Title:  DMIR 2-8-8-4 #229 - Duluth, Missabe & Iron Range
Description:  During WW II, these types of steam locomotives could move massive amounts of iron ore for use in building military equipment needed by the troops oversead. It was often referred to as "the locomotives that defeated Hitler." A fitting tribute to the hardworking locomotive and all the crew members that maintained them!

DMIR 2-8-8-4 #229 - Duluth, Missabe & Iron Range
Title:  DMIR 2-8-8-4 #229 - Duluth, Missabe & Iron Range
Description:  As mentioned earlier, this tender could hold 26 tons of coal and 25,000 gallons of water. According to one source at the Lake Superior RR Museum,"when working at full power, [the locomotive] could consume some 10 to 12 tons of coal an hour and evaporate water into steam at the astounding rate of 12,000 gallons per hour. The amount of coal ...used in one hour would be enough to heat a home for two winters." (and Minnesota winters at that, one supposes.)

Specs - M4 class, 63" drivers, 240 psi boiler pressure, 26x32" cylinders, engine weight of 699,700 lb, impressive tractive effort of 140,000 lb. There was no date, location or photographer listed for this photo so an approximate date and location were used.
