Florida East Coast 4-8-2s

The Florida East Coast 4-8-2s were a series of 4-8-2 "Mountain" type steam locomotives built for the Florida East Coast Railway between 1923-1926, with the first batch built by ALCO's Richmond Works and the remaining two batches built by ALCO's Schenectady Works.
==History==
In 1923, ALCO's Richmond Works had built and delivered 15 examples of the Florida East Coast's 4-8-2s for the Florida East Coast Railway where they were classified as the Class 301. Then in 1924, ALCO's Schenectady Works had built 52 examples and delivered them to Florida East Coast Railway where the Florida East Coast had classified them as the Class 401. Then in 1926, ALCO's Schenectady Works had built an additional 23 examples and delivered them to Florida East Coast Railway where the Florida East Coast had classified them as the Class 801.
Unfortunately, things were already off to a bad result for the Florida East Coast Railway, as the Great Depression had put a serious dent on them and the once proud railroad had declared bankruptcy. The Florida East Coast Railway did sell 50 of their 4-8-2s to other railroads in order to recoup some of their financial losses, those railroads include the Western Railroad of Alabama, the St. Louis Southwestern Railway (or better known as the Cotton Belt Route) and the National Railways of Mexico (or better known as N de M), meanwhile the remaining examples of the Florida East Coast's 4-8-2s remained in service, with a few being involved in wrecks or boiler explosions until the 1950s.
Retirement of the class had commenced in the 1950s and the last example of the series was out of service in favor of diesels, they were all cut up afterwards.
