These\n  engines were built without compromise—designed to move fast, heavy passenger trains\n  across long western mainlines.

Built by Baldwin Locomotive Works between 1943 and 1944 for the Atchison,\n  Topeka and Santa Fe Railway, these 4-8-4 “Northern” locomotives were the\n  \u003cstrong\u003elargest and most powerful passenger steam engines\u003c\/strong\u003e ever rostered by\n  Santa Fe—and among the most formidable steam locomotives built anywhere.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\n  Today, six examples of the 2900 Class survive. Five are preserved for static display,\n  while \u003cstrong\u003eNo. 2926\u003c\/strong\u003e was fully restored and returned to service in\n  Albuquerque, New Mexico in 2021.
