Matthias Baldwin (1795-1866), a former jeweler and tool manufacturer, was commissioned in 1831 by Franklin Peale to fashion a miniature locomotive engine to be displayed at his Philadelphia Museum. Soon the Philadelphia, Germantown and Norristown Railroad asked Baldwin to construct \u0093Old Ironsides,\u0094 his first full-size engine, in 1832. Subsequently, M.W. Baldwin, incorporated in 1831, became an establishment for the manufacture of locomotive engines at 400 North Broad Street in Philadelphia. The poor economic climate of the first half of the nineteenth century caused Baldwin to seek out financial support for his new company, which he found through partnerships with George Hufty, George Vail, Asa Whitney, and Matthew Baird. The company produced engines for a multitude of American and international railroads. During the Civil War, many southern Railroads withdrew their purchases due to Matthias Baldwin\u0092s alleged abolitionist stance, but in the meantime Baldwin built no fewer than thirty engines for the federal government. Baldwin passed away in 1866 and Matthew Baird became the senior member of the company. By 1873, Baird had sold his shares to George Burnham, Charles T. Parry, and Edward H. Williams, who renamed the company Burnham, Parry, Williams & Co. In 1890 the company was officially incorporated as Baldwin Locomotive Works, which had been the name of its center of operations in Philadelphia for many years, and in 1929 operations moved to Eddystone, Pennsylvania. The company remained there until, due to halted production and the downturn of steam engines, it merged with the Lima-Hamilton Company in 1950. Baldwin Locomotive Works stopped production in 1956.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Founded in the 1830's, the Baldwin Locomotive Works rapidly became America's premier builder of steam engines for railway use. In the aftermath of the Civil War, a new standard emerged on the railroads of 4' 8.5'. Yet this gauge proved prohibitively expensive in mountainous regionsand for mining operations.
