The American Brake Shoe & Foundry No. 1 is an 0-4-0ST built in 1911 at the Alco's Crooke Locomotive Works as American Brake Shoe & Foundry Co. No. 1 where it used to work as a switch engine.

In 1925, the locomotive was sold to the E.&.G. Brooke Iron Company in Birdsboro, PA< where it was renumbered as #3. The E.&.G. Brooke Iron Company were bought by the Colorado Fuel & Iron Company in 1952.

It was then bought by the Wanamaker, Kempton and Southern Incorporated in Kempton, PA, in 1963 but proved unserviceable and went on static display on a back track behind Kempton Station.

Today the locomotive is on public display at the Paterson Museum with Panama Railroad No. 299 in Paterson, NJ.

Trivia[]

  • In 1978, it was sold for $7,400 to the Great Falls Development Corporation so that it could be placed on display at the Patterson Museum. But apparently it's arrival was quite a big deal.
  • The locomotive was paraded down Market Street to City Hall pulled by a team of horses along with a police honor guard and a procession of antique cars.
