ATSF 2_8_0 #1 - Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe |
Description: |
This "grand dame" of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Rwy is the oldest surviving ATSF steam locomotive in the US. Originally built as ATSF 132 (serial #5266, class 10-36-E 3) by Burnham, Wms & Co (Baldwin predecessor) in September of 1880, it carried many numbers through the years - #132 in 1880, ##912 in 1898, 2414 in 1900. The loco was rebuilt to 0-8-0, restored to 2-8-0 as #132, and in 1950 overhauled with the new #1 and name "Cyrus K. Holliday". Finally donated to the Kansas Museum of History in Topeka, KS, it was renumbered one more time back to #132. An unknown photographer caught it while it was #1. |

ATSF 1 |
Description: |
Santa Fe 2-8-0 #1, the “Cyrus K. Holliday,” was originally Santa Fe 2-8-0 #132, built by Baldwin Locomotive Works in September 1880. In 1898 the locomotive was renumbered #912, and it was renumbered again in 1900 (to #2414) when converted to an 0-8-0, and renumbered back to #132 again in 1941 (when it was converted back to a 2-8-0). It became #1 (and named for Santa Fe’s first president and a founder of Topeka, KS, Cyrus K. Holliday) in the early 1960s for use as on operating display celebrating the Kansas State Centennial at the Kansas Free Fair in Topeka between June 15th and 25th, 1961.
