Dimensions, Weights, and Tractive Power of Narrow-Gauge Locomotives: Manufactured by the Baldwin Locomotive Works Lisa Lee Published: 09/21/2010Founded in the 1830's, the Baldwin Locomotive Works rapidly became America's premier builder of steam engines for railway use. In the aftermath of the Civil War, a new standard emerged on the railroads of 4' 8. 5". Yet this gauge proved prohibitively expensive in mountainous regionsand for mining operations.
