    Last month I started a thread on Berks. This month let's see your Hudsons. There were many other railroads beside the NY Central that operated Hudsons--anyone have any CB&Q, Chessy, B&O, ATSF, or other railroad's 4-6-4's? :confused:
    This photo was sent to me and I can't remember who was the source. Was it you, Ron? If so, please take credit for it. NYC 5444, the last NYC Hudson built before the last 10 which were streamlined for the 20th Century Limited. :rolleyes:

    Barb, these were the BIG ones, C&O's, weighing in at 439,500 lb. vs NYC's 360,000 lb. The heaviest Hudsons. This one from Joe Schmitz collection, by Bob Foster, through the C&O historical society. :D [​IMG]
