Dear Jeff:
Erie #3158 was a Class N-3 Mikado, built by Baldwin, Builder #56408, in April 
1923, sold for scrap in June 1950.  Pistons were 28-inches, X 32-inch stroke, 
with 63-inch driving wheels, 200 psi pressure, 338030 total weight, with 
67700 pounds traction effort. It was delivered with an automatic stoker, trailer 
booster, and feed water heater. From The Railway and Locomotive Society 
Railroad History #131, Autumn 1974, page 97.

Erie Class H-12 never made it to 1447. 
- --basically a McKeen car or an RS-2 (later converted to passenger service) or 
a "modernized" (or wood series) coach plus and an EL-numbered DLW EMD SW-9 
switcher.
