The 4-4-0 was a small sized inside frame
locomotive that worked all over North and
South America. They were Built in the
1870's and 1880's. The 4-4-0 shared many
common parts with other similar sized loco-
motives of the same period. The three point
suspension allowed these engines to go over
fairly rough track without derailing, and also
because of their large drivers move along
at a good speed with a passenger train on
level track. The classic 4-4-0 or American
is the lovomotive that most people think of
when the old west was young. Hollywood
correctly uses these preserved locomotives
even today when needing trains of that
period.
