Alco RSD-16 Diesel Electric Train Engine - Línea San Martín - LSM (Palermo, Buenos Aires)

 

It's called as Alco RSD-16 by many local train lovers though there is no information about this locomotive in Alco's production manuals. Its appearance is very similar to the Alco RSD-12, and also MLW RSD-14.

 

Raúl Alejandro Rodríguez wrote:

 

The ALCO RSD-16 was an export model. It was basically an RSD-12 but with 6 axles and a four stroke diesel engine (the 1800 HP Alco 251). The Alco locomotives where acquired in 1957 and (among other lines) where put in service in the suburban section of the Ferrocarril General San Martín. But by the seventies they where supplemented with the General Motors GM EMD GT-22 locomotives (2200 HP two strokes diesel engines). Most of them where built under license by Astarsa in Argentina. From some 10 years ago also a few second hand ex Renfe series 319 Alcos were seen in front of those suburban trains. By now there are no GM nor Alcos as they were all replaced by new Chinese locomotives CSR SDD7.- Note that the Alco locomotives are taller than the GMs and that the GMs are longer than the Alcos. The GMs have the cabin in one end of the locomotive as the Alcos have the cabin not in the middle but near one end so they have one long hood and other shorter. This photo (PHOTO ID 478407) is a good shot of the two types of locomotives (left the GM and right the ALCO) in the colours of Linea San Martín.

Collection: Steven R. Shook

Remark: The water in the in-track water tank was scooped up by the passing train. These particular tanks were located just east of the present day crossing on Calumet Road.

 

These track pans were originally located at Burdick, five miles east of Chesterton. They were first used at Burdick in May 1893. just prior to the opening of the Columbian Exposition in Chicago. The pans were 1,400 feet long and rains could scoop up the water at a speed up to 40 mph. Initially not heated, the track pans had to be closed in the winter; heaters were installed during the winter of 1897-98. In 1907, the track pans were moved to Chesterton where they remained until the end of steam power.

RAILWAY NOTES

The Lake Shore Company Will Make Many Changes Here Before the Summer is Over.

 

The Lake Shore railway is contemplating some extensive changes in improvements on their right of way through Chesterton. As soon as the bridge gang gets through with the Bailleytown [sic, Baillytown] bridge they pill [sic, will] come up here and put in a water trough in both the tracks, just east of the Coffee creek bridge. The trough will be a mile long and will be made of cement and concrete, and all trains of every description will take water without stopping. The pump house, it is said, will be moved to a point almost opposite the paint factory and the water tank will also be taken down and a much larger one built near the pumping station site. Unusually heavy rails have been laid on the east-bound track and the west-bound track will be fitted out with like material.

 

It is understood that the company has placed orders for a large number of freight engines, much heavier than those now in use, and nearly all freight trains will be made through freights. It is thought that when the new engines are placed in commission on this division the pusher engine will be put out of commission.

 

The moving of the pumping station away from the road crossing is a move that will please the farmers who have come to town over this crossing, as the plant as it is now located obstructs the view of the tracks from the east altogether, and up to the time a watchman was placed there was a very dangerous place. With the buildings removed a clear view of the tracks can be had for over a mile in each direction.

 

The bridge being built at Baillytown is of the very latest design, and is expressly built for the heavier thrains [sic, trains] that the company is putting on. In the event that the company four-tracked its right of way the abutments can be easily extended and the additional track put on.

 

The company last week erected several sheds just north of the organ factory to house their Italian help who will do all the heavy work on these improvements., quite a number being here now unloading stone and other material for the erection of the water trough.

The following news item was published in the August 2, 1906, issue of The Chesterton Tribune:

 

LOCAL NEWS OF THE WEEK

The Lake Shore company is building several shanties across Coffee creek to be occupied by about two hundred Italians who are coming here to put in the water troughs and build the new pumping station. The work train is at work unloading crushed stone along the right of way for the troughs and work will begin in a few days. It is said the company expects to spend $80,000 on their property here this season, and whether this includes a new depot or not has not been given out. The citizens sincerely hope that a part of this amount will be expended in new buildings, as they are badly needed.

The following news item was published in the August 2, 1906, issue of The Chesterton Tribune:

 

LAKE SHORE IMPROVEMENTS

Work is Progressing Rapidly with a Large Force of Men at Work.

Work Being Done by the Austrians in Camp East of the Bridge, Who will be Here till Cold Weather.

Work on the improvements underway by the Lake Shore Railway company in Chesterton is progressing rapidly. The workmen are building the foundations for the new pumping station just opposite from the paint factory, all the work being finished in concrete and is very substantially built. Work in the water trough in the tracks will commence as soon as the foundations are finished for the pumphouse. A gang is at work now putting in the strengthening work under the tracks to permit the necessary excavations for the trough. A number of tunnel stations are being built along the right of way and all pipes will be laid in cement tunnels, so that at all times they will be accessible for repair work without digging around the through proper.

 

The work being done principally by the Austrians, in a camp east of the bridge. A visit to the camp will surprise the average individual, as a place of this kind is usually a filthy and unwholesome one. Not here, however. The cullinary [sic] department in charge of Louis Ziapirh, as head chef, and the kitchen and dining room is as clean and neat as any kitchen in town. Long tables extend on each side of the building with a row of benches on each side. The tables and seats are as clean as soap and water will make them, and the dishes and cooking utensils are in like shape. The next building is used for sleeping quarters, and the bunks are placed crosswise the full length of the building, each man having a bunk for themselves. These men buy all their provisions from our merchants, and they want and will use only the best to be had. Their meat bill alone amounts to about $25 per week, and is delivered fresh for each meal. They have built an underground cellar between the two buildings, and this is well stocked with eatables and drinkables of every description. There are about fifty men in the camp, and are a well behaved and orderly crowd and no complaint has been heard from or about them by anyone.

 

Every day is laundry day at the camp, each individual doing his own laundry work, and the wire fence along the right of way is used as a clothes line and is usually covered with drying clothing.

 

The men expect to remain here until cold weather sets in and possibly will remain all winter, as the work under way cannot be completed by that time with the present force.

 

The concrete work is of very substantial nature, all the walls being two feet thick, reinforced with iron rods throughout. The pumping station will be about 25x75 feet, two stories. The pumps will be located in the lower room, which will be below the road grade, and the boiler room will be on a grade with the roadway. The buildings are set back far enough to permit an additional track when tha [sic] company gets around to laying their fourth track, which will undoubtedly be in the near future.

The following news item appears in the October 25, 1906, issue of The Chesterton Tribune:

 

CHESTERTON ITEMS.

The improvements the Lake Shore company is putting along their right of way in Chesterton are rapidly approaching completion and it will be but a short time till the work is finished. The pump house is finished and nearly all pipe connections have been put in place, and next week they expect to put up the boilers and pump, and it will be bit a short time till all trains will take water without stopping. Water plugs have been put in near the pump house and those trains that do take water from them will not block the crossing in town, thus doing away with a nuisance that has long been a danger to people using this crossing. All improvements are being made on a large scale and the facilities are sufficient to supply double the number of trains now running with water, and it will undoubtedly be several generations before other improvements will have to be made in this direction at this station and by that time all trains will undoubtedly be running by electricity, and there will be no need of pumping stations.

The following news item appears in the December 13, 1906, issue of The Chesterton Tribune:

 

LOCAL NEWS OF THE WEEK

The improvements being made east of here on the Lake Shore are rapidly assuming tangible shape now. A hand some brick building has been erected for the pumping station, and this week the water tank is being built. The water trough will soon be in operation, and the men are working on the job every day, including Sundays. The cost of the improvement is estimated at $80,000. The common labor on the job is being done principally by Italians who live in boarding shanties which have been erected long the right of way.

The following news item was published in the December 12, 1907, issue of The Chesterton Tribune:

 

TROUGHS ARE COSTLY

LAKE SHORE AND MICHIGAN SOUTHERN SPENDS FORTUNE SAVING TIME.

Water Troughs Enable Trains to Travel Long Distances Without Stops or Delays.

 

More than $1,000,000 has been spent by the Lake Shore this year to enable trains to take water between Buffalo and Chicago without stopping. This Vanderbilt line now has eleven places between those cities at which water may be scooped by the passenger trains traveling at from forty to seventy-five miles an hour. Every fifty miles troughs have been built between the rails. Each trough is 2,000 feet long and costs over $100,000 to install.

 

"If it were not for the necessary station stops," said D. C. Moon, assistant general manager of the Lake Shore, "a train could be run from Buffalo to Chicago, 525 miles, without stopping." A few do make 183 miles now.

 

"The extremely high cost of the troughs is due to several causes. Ground must be excavated from six to eight feet. The bottom is first filled with large stones and smaller stones are used nearing the top. Fine broken pebbles finish the subgrade under the track ties. This is to insure a perfectly level track both winder and summer, as so much water is thrown out of the troughs when scooping that the ground becomes soft in warm weather and freezes in cold weather.

 

"The water is supplied by gravity from large tanks. The water must be warmed through a boiler in the winter to prevent freezing in the troughs. The supply pipes are large and are equipped with automatic valves which shut off the supply when the trough is filled."
