Santa Fe No. 1010 on static display at the California State Railroad Museum with Santa Fe No. 347C the Sole surviving AT&SF F7 locomotive.
Santa Fe No. 1010 is an F7 class 2-6-2 "Prairie" type steam locomotive built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1901 for the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway (AT&SF). The locomotive was used in passenger service on the AT&SF.
It was used in the record breaking 1905 Scott Special on the segment between Needles, California and Seligman, Arizona.
In November 1979, the AT&SF donated the locomotive to the California State Railroad Museum in Sacramento, CA and is currently on indoor static display there. In November 2023, the museum launched a fundraiser to raise the money necessary to restore the locomotive to operating condition.
