IHC Premier M9897 Northern Pacific Class Q-3 4-6-2 Pacific Locomotive #2157
"Just as NP was one of the first roads to adopt the Mikado, it turned to the Pacific for passenger trains in 1903 with the delivery of 20 Q-class Pacifics by Alco, nos. 2080-2099. Their 69" drivers and 22" x 26" cylinders set the pattern for the next four classes of 4-6-2s; they weighed 205,000 pounds. Baldwin delivered 23 Q-3 Pacifics in 1909. They had the same size cylinders as the Q-1s, but were built with Walschaerts valve gear and outside valves: weight was up to 237,000 pounds." (From: "Guide to North American Steam Engines" Compiled by the late George H. Drury.)
