B&O ex BRP KK 2-6-6-2 7529
Author: KCRW287

From a stack of steam engine photographs is a B&O 2-6-6-2, info I found that was from BRP and one of the largest on the B&O, no info as to date or location.

BR&P had 55 2-6-6-2 LL Class locomotives numbered 700-754. When the B&O took over they renumbered them 7500-7554 and reclassified them as KK Class. B&O 7529 (ex-BR&P 729) was built by Alco-Brooks in 1918 and was retired in 1953. The location is harder to make out, although they seemed to stay on their former roads home rails for the most part. BR&P also had XX Class 2-8-8-2 locomotives which became B&O Class EE. Don't get to see too much on the BR&P in steam days. Thanks for the post!
