All these photos are from the collection of Bud Laws and are used by permission. Also, most of these images have written details about the particular locomotive. But I have misplaced the file that lists the details. I will revise these if I find the file. Art (Moderator: Photo taken at 19th St. Yard, Kansas City, MO. rrt)

A question, Were these 2-6-0, 2-6-2, 2-6-4 or other wheel arrangements before they were 0-6-0 configurations? I would like to know what kind of switching locos these were. As far as what would they really pull, could they switch 100 cars at a time? They look like little brutes, small drivers, I bet they were just a wheel slip waiting to happen.

Karl - How did they compare to the 3600's - in particular the SLSF 3671-3675 and SLSF 3676-3695? The 3695 is my favorite little critter - sold to Scullin Steel and sitting here at the NMOT since 1956. Unfortunately, it receives now no love and care it seems. Ken

Ken, Most of the locomotives from the 3600 series of 0-6-0’s ante-date the Memphis Road merger and the series is comprised of locomotives from several of the Frisco’s antecedent roads. Many of the locomotives in this series were sold or put to the torch before the 1920’s. The 3698 was a 0-4-0, and the 3699 was a 0-4-2; both were built for the BB Rwy as that road’s Number 5 and number 1, respectively. 3600-3610, nee 600-610, nee 1600-1610, TE=12,300; No “modern” diagram.

This class utilized a crown bar firebox, which reduced boiler circulation and caused increased scaling. It was not used much (on new locomotives) after the turn of the century.
