The Union Pacific class MK-1 was a class of 2-8-2 'Mikado' type steam locomotives that were built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works originally for the Oregon Railroad and Navigation Company (OR&N), Oregon Short Line Railroad (OSL) and Union Pacific Railroad (UP) in 1910 and 1911.
History
In 1910, the Oregon-Washington Railroad and Navigation Company (OWR&N) purchased a 2-8-2 'Mikado' locomotive from the Baldwin Locomotive Works and had this single locomotive numbered 440, this locomotive would be renumbered as 500 in 1911, and renumbered to 2100 in 1915.
In 1911, the OWR&N would order another 40 of these locomotives from Baldwin where they were originally numbered as 501–540, but renumbered as 2101–2140. The Oregon Short Line Railroad (OSL) would order 15 locomotives from Baldwin and numbered them as 1100–1114, but renumbering them to 2000–2014 in 1915. The Union Pacific Railroad (UP) would order 30 locomotives from Baldwin where they numbered them as 500–529, renumbering them to 1900–1929 in 1915
OSL No. 2000 was sold to the Spokane International Railroad (SI) in 1936.
Preservation
