    Baldwin Narrow Gauge Pictures From Off The Beaten Path Baldwin locomotives

    Baldwin, The Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania has the Herbert Broadbelt negative collection, which Broadbelt famously saved from the garbage bin as BLW was about to go under.  The collection does not have every builder's photo Baldwin took, but most are there and you can get prints of them at a price

    Baldwin Locomotive Collection archives held by the Degolyer Collection at Southern Methodist University

    http://poni.smu.edu/cgi-bin/Pwebrecon.cgi?DB=local&CNT=25&Search_Arg=Baldwin+Locomotive+Works&Search_Code=TALL

    The Baldwin Locomotive Collection is devoted to the largest and most influential manufacturer of steam railroad locomotive engines in the world. This collection includes books, specifications, engineering drawings, blueprints for engines, advertising and corporate publications, manuscripts, and photographs. Guides are available for the records, detail part drawings, and erecting card drawings.

    Baldwin Locomotive Works Collection [ca. 1834-1962] archived at the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission

    The collection consists primarily of the engineering drawings for the locomotives produced, as well as various related indexes, registers, order books and specification books. Unfortunately, the indexing system is complicated and some gaps exist in the collection. The drawings remain largely unprocessed at this time, and access is extremely limited. 

    Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania 13,000 photo specification cards from the Broadbelt Collection of the Baldwin Locomotive Works, 1880-1940 (inventory in progress)

    Narrow Gauge Quarry Hunslet    Welcome to the Quarry Hunslet web site, the aim is to  capture all these wonderful narrow gauge locomotives that were produced for the Quarries of North Wales. All these engines were produced by the Hunslet Engine Company of Leeds between 1870 and 1932. Hunslets designed these light weight locomotives for work in harsh environments in the Quarries running most of the year, year in year out, until the decline of the quarries.

Also to provide a focus for those with a general interest in these locos and more particularly in the status and whereabouts of the survivors.
