- Description:
- Bult in 1911 and 1912, the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway modified ten 2-10-2 Baldwin-built locomotives into a new 2-10-10-2 configuration and was dubbed the 3000 class. These were the largest locomotives in the world from their introduction until 1914. While good in helper service, they could only go 10 to 15 mph (16 to 24 km/h) before losing steam. The ATSF reverted them to their 2-10-2 configurations between 1915 and 1918.
