    The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway's 3450 class comprised ten 4-6-4 "Hudson" type steam locomotives built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1927. Built as coal-burners, they were converted to oil-burning during the 1930s.
    At the same time, the locomotives were given 79-inch (2,007 mm) driving wheels instead of their original 73-inch (1,854 mm), and the boiler pressures increased from 220 to 230 lbf/in2 (1.52 to 1.59 MPa).
    Combined, these changes reduced the starting tractive effort from 44,250 to 43,300 lbf (196.8 to 192.6 kN), but increased the top speed and efficiency.
    Their early service was in the Midwest, between Chicago, Illinois and Colorado; later, some were assigned to service in the San Joaquin Valley of California between Bakersfield and Oakland.

    They were smaller and less powerful locomotives than the later 3460 class, but were capable of equivalently high speeds.

    The first locomotive built, #3450, was donated by the Santa Fe in 1955 to the Railway and Locomotive Historical Society's Southern California chapter, and is preserved at the Society's museum in the Los Angeles County Fairgrounds at Pomona, California.
    It is not in operational condition but is preserved in good condition as a static exhibit.
    Visitors can feel like an engineer and blow the classic ATSF 6 chime whistle which receives pressure from an air compressor.

    Repairing a 3454 Automatic Merchandise Car

    Repairing a 3454 Automatic Merchandise Car
    Posted by jkoman on Saturday, June 05, 2010 12:22 AM
    I am trying to repair a 3454 Automatic Merchandise Car. The door on the boxcar opens but then does not close easily. When I opened up the car I noticed that there is a wire (sort of shaped like a V) that is wrapped around where the lever that pulls the door back and for is located. I am trying to figure out how this wire should be installed. Does anyone have an idea how it should be. I am not talking about the clip that is attached to the door.

    Any help.

    Thanks
    Posted by dsmith on Tuesday, June 08, 2010 2:40 PM
    Since I had my 3454 apart I took a photo of the mechanism. The thin wire is the spring that closes the door. The 2 ends of the spring are attached at the red arrows. One end engages the arm and the other end hooks over the end of the side frame. The door closed weakly on mine so I added a 30 degree bend to the end of the spring that hooks over the frame.

    Betty Jane I was built in 1913 as a private motorboat of the same name by the Electric Launch Company (ELCO) at Bayonne, New Jersey.
    On 4 September 1917, the U.S. Navy acquired her under a free lease from her owner, Percy Ballentyne of South Montrose, Pennsylvania, for use as a section patrol boat during World War I.
    She was commissioned later that day as USS Betty Jane I.

    Assigned to the 6th Naval District, Betty Jane I patrolled the southeastern coast of the United States for the rest of World War I.
    In September 1918, she received a registration number, although sources disagree on whether this was the section patrol number SP-3458 or the naval registry identification number ID-3458.

    Betty Jane I was stricken from the Navy List on 17 January 1919 and the Navy returned her to Ballentyne the same day.

    The Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway's 3460 class comprised six 4-6-4 "Hudson" type steam locomotives built in 1937 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works for service between La Junta, Colorado and Chicago, Illinois, a fairly flat division of the railroad suited for the 4-6-4 type.
    They were substantially larger than the road's earlier 3450 class locomotives, and all were built oil-fired, although in a manner that would allow for easy conversion to coal firing.

    They had much in common with the Milwaukee Road's class F7 and the Chicago and North Western Railway's class E-4, all three types being fast, 84-inch drivered 4-6-4s for Midwestern service with 300 lb/in² boiler pressures.

    In December 1937, locomotive #3461 set a world record for the longest single run by a steam locomotive by completing the 2,227 miles (3,584 km) from Los Angeles, California to Chicago without maintenance other than five refuelling stops en route, hauling Train #8, the Fast Mail Express.
    An average speed of 45 mph (72 km/h) was obtained, including stops; maximum speed during the run was 90 mph (140 km/h).
    During steeply graded portions of the run it was, of course, assisted by helper locomotives.
    Such long distance runs were a goal of railway operating departments, enabling a reduction in locomotive numbers and through increased locomotive utilization, reduce overall costs.


    The first locomotive, #3460, was built streamlined; painted light, robin's egg blue and silver, it became known as the "Blue Goose".
    It was the Santa Fe's only streamlined steam locomotive, featuring extensively in railroad publicity and was a railfan favorite.

    Locomotive #3461 was fitted with a streamlined "skyline" casing along the top of the boiler, encasing stack and domes, in an experiment to see if it helped clear smoke away from the locomotive.
    It was not retained.
    All of the locomotives otherwise had a Santa Fe-style telescoping stack extension fitted, which elongated the stack to clear smoke better and could be lowered to pass under low bridges and tunnels.

    The 3460 class 4-6-4s, the 3765 class 4-8-4s, and the 5001 class 2-10-4s were designed and ordered around the same time and had much in common in their designs; in addition, they used the same six-axle tender design.
    The classes together were often called the "Big Three".

    Only one of this class survives, #3463, on static display on the grounds to the Southeast of the Kansas Expocentre in Topeka, Kansas.

    LIONEL TRAINS OPERATING LOG UNLOADING CAR No. 3461

    The Operating Log Unloading Car No. 3461 would unload logs into the line side bin with the use of a No. 6019 or UCStrack section.

    Produced from 1949 until 1955, this car replaced the No. 3451. While the construction is basically the same as its predicessor, with a die-cast frame, this version has magnetic instead of coil couplers. All of these cars came with a No. 160 Unloading Bin and five logs. There are three variations:

    Variation A: Has rubber-stamped sans-serif lettering. Most likely production began before the heat stamp was available. Came with staple-end trucks and five unstained wood logs. Produced early in 1949, this is a rare variation.

    Variation B: Has heat-stamped sans-serif lettering. Came with both staple-end or bar-end trucks, and five unstained wood logs. This variation was produced from 1949 until 1953 and is the most common.
    please log in to view this image

    Variation C: Has heat-stamped sans-serif lettering on a GREEN painted car. Produced in 1954-55, this car was the first have the five stained logs that became the standard load for all flat cars that came with logs. Has bar-end trucks with magnetic couplers and came in a box numbered 3461-25. This number does not appear on the car or in the catalogs and is only shown on the box end.

    On all of these variations those cars that came in a train set have the number 3461X on a smaller box that did not include the No. 160Unloading Bin that was packaged separately within the set.

    The Preservation of Santa Fe 3463

    When the Coalition for Sustainable Rail announced in 2012 our plan to acquire Santa Fe No. 3463, we believed it was the ideal locomotive to determine the viability of advanced, high speed steam locomotives. We envisioned using No. 3463 as a proving ground to see if torrefied biomass fuel and other innovations could pave a new path forward for advanced steam in the 21st Century.

    We still believe in those objectives, but sometimes plans change.

    A dispute over the ownership of the locomotive delayed our original plans with No. 3463 nearly five years. While pursuing resolution of the ownership dispute, however, we continued to pursue its mission through other opportunities, making strides towards torrefied biomass, advanced steam, and preservation research. As of January 2018, those legal matters have been resolved, allowing us to move forward with work on No. 3463.


    In accordance with our mission to preserve as well as innovate, we are initiating a plan to preserve No. 3463 as an artifact instead of a "research testbed."
