Southern Pacific #1423
Title:  Southern Pacific #1423
Description:  Niles Canyon Railroad Museum - This Locomotive was part of a second batch of 40 NW2's delivered in 1949, with 23 going to the Pacific Lines (#1403-1425) and 17 going to the Texas & New Orleans (#72-88). In 1965 the locomotive was renumbered to #1951 and painted in the SP gray and scarlet. In 1972, SP decided to add postwar NW2's to their rebuild program and the #423 was rebuilt at the Houston Shops. In September 1972, the locomotive was upgraded to an NW2-E and renumbered to #1335. The locomotive was retired from the Southern Pacific in 1986, and eventually ended up at the Parr Terminal Railroad of Richmond, California. Parr Terminal operated the locomotive until 1998 and then donated it to the Pacific Locomotive Association in 2000. The locomotive arrived at the Niles Canyon Railway during December of 2000 and a seven month rebuild was begun. Association Volunteer Ken Asmus led the work, some of which included: removing and having the blowers rebuilt, top end work on the engine, a complete air brake system rebuild, new traction motor cabling installed, and other electrical work. As part of the restoration, the locomotive was backdated to its original appearance by replacing the sealed beam headlights, installing a single chime air horn and a new bell. The final touch was painting the locomotive in the black and orange Southern Pacific "Tiger Stripe" paint scheme as it was delivered from EMD.
