Atlanta and West Point 290
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Atlanta_and_West_Point_290 an entity of type: Thing
Atlanta and West Point 290 is a P-74 steam locomotive built in March 1926 by the Lima Locomotive Works (LLW) in Lima, Ohio for the Atlanta and West Point Railroad. It was a 4-6-2 heavy "Pacific" type steam locomotive, which was remarkably similar to the Southern Railway's Ps-4 class. With sister locomotive, No. 190 built for the Western Railway of Alabama (WRA), the 290 ferried the Southern Railway's Crescent passenger train from Atlanta, Georgia to Montgomery, Alabama until its retirement from revenue service in 1954. The No. 290 locomotive was saved by a group called the 290 Club and was placed on static display at the city of Atlanta's Lakewood Park.

The No. 290 locomotive was saved by a group called the 290 Club and was placed on static display at the city of Atlanta's Lakewood Park. In 1961, No. 290 was donated to the Atlanta Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society (NRHS). In 1989, the locomotive was restored to operating condition for the New Georgia Railroad (NGRX) program, running excursion trips all across the Georgia state until late 1992, when it was retired due to running gear issues. The No. 290 locomotive is currently dissembled at the Southeastern Railway Museum (SRM) in Duluth, Georgia. With no plans to be restored back to operating condition, the locomotive is stored inside the SRM's backshop, waiting for a full cosmetic restoration.
