USP&F 43-45 were all ex STLB&M/MP. /StLB&M/MP 4327 Re Nmbrd to MP 936 to USP&F 43 then to Peabody 343; 4330 to MP 939 then USP&F 44 to Peabody, same number; 4331 to MP 940 to USP&F 45 then to Peabody 45. Peabody acquired them in 1972.. Ben Date: 10/30/24 09:42 Re: 4 of United States Pipe & Foundry Co. Engines, 1972 Author: refarkas Wow!
