#1529 is the last of ten Frisco Class T-54 Mountain (4-8-2) type locomotives built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in Philadelphia, PA, and delivered in 1926 (#1520-#1529).

At 360,890 lbs, they were heavier than the five 342,200 lb Baldwin built Mountains delivered in 1925 (#1515-#1519) and the first fifteen also built by Baldwin and delivered in 1923 (#1500-#1514) weighing 339,800 lbs, 244700 lbs on their drivers. You can see one of the first batch on the SLSF 1500 #1501 page of this website. Despite the weight differences, however, all thirty had an 18’ driver wheelbase and engine wheelbase of 40’ 4” with 28" x 28" cylinders and 69" drivers. Oil fired, #1529 had a 70.3 sq ft grate, 405 sq ft firebox and total heating surface of 4,620 sq ft, including 1,180 sq ft superheating. Operating at a boiler pressure of 210 psi, they delivered 54,085 lbs tractive effort.

#1529 was donated to the City of Amory, MS, in 1953 and is on display in Frisco Park. You can see more T-54s on the SLSF #1501, SLSF #1519, the National Museum of Transportation, St. Louis Train Sheds, SLSF #1526 and SLSF #1527 pages of this website.
