<p>The power and romance of the rails lives again in the paintings of artist Gil Bennett. From the big Great Northern 2-8-2 Mikado of 1944, the never-built Lincoln-type 4-10-4, to the CO 2-6-6-2 articulated Mallet type, you’ll find remarkable locomotives. You’ll also find classic trains from Pennsy, SP, UP, CBQ, GN and more. All are depicted with historical and informational captions for every month. Engines and railroads featured in Gil Bennett’s paintings for the 2022 edition include: • 1970, Penn Central GP-40s hustling a hot freight westward toward Chicago. • 1905, Southern Pacific Railroad Train 204 is blasting up grade, behind two “hogs,” the nickname for 2-8-0 locomotives. • 1973, Delaware Hudson Railroad trio of Delaware Hudson U30C’s glide along Lake Champlain on a snowy, overcast New England day. • Spring Snow at Mears Junction – 1949, Denver Rio Grande Western 497, a K-37 2-8-2, takes a caboose hop to the top of Marshall Pass in Colorado. • 1963, Union Pacific Railroad GTEL (gas turbine electric locomotive) 21 lugs a long freight up-grade on the “new” Harriman line over Sherman Hill. • 1942, Utah Idaho Central Railway train #8 is on time and ready to depart at 9:49 for the sprint to Ogden, UT. Interurban cars 502 and 602 are loaded with passengers and mail heading to the Great Salt Lake valley. • 1969, Great Northern Railway train is pulled by an SD-45, plus one of the new F-45s in the sky blue GN scheme, and a GP-35. • 1942, Chicago, Burlington Quincy Railroad 4976, a 2-8-2, was a regular on this train in the 1940s. • In 1932, the Great Northern Railway built three huge 2-8-2 Mikado locomotives. The locomotives had 69-inch drivers with a boiler that produced 5,100 horses with a tractive force of 78,000 pounds.
