IHC Premier M9895 Boston & Maine Class P-4 4-6-2 Pacific Locomotive #3713

"The P-4s constituted a quantum leap for Boston & Maine. The road needed larger passenger power, and Baldwin proposed a 4-6-4, but Lima suggested that a 4-6-2 could meet B&M's requirements at a lower price. Lima delivered five 4-6-2s in late 1934, class P-4-a. and five more in early 1937, class P-4-b. Weight on the 80" drivers was just short of 70,000 pounds, and total weight of the locomotive was 339,200 pounds. Trailer boosters gave a total starting tractive force of 52,800 pounds. The P-4s were intended for fast merchandise trains as well as passenger duties." (From: "Guide to North American Steam Engines" Compiled by the late George H. Drury.)
