First edition of this excellent catalogue touting the many different locomotive designs offered by Pennsylvania’s third largest locomotive producer at the beginning of the 20th Century whose most popular locomotives were the 0-4-0Ts and 0-6-0Ts better known as “Dinkies†which competed with Porter and the Davenport Locomotive Works. Due to their small size Vulcan Locomotives were especially popular with lumber mill and logging company operations as well as popular in foreign countries such as Britain France Italy German as well as Cuba Australia and Canada. The locomotives depicted here in the photos encompass such railroads as the A.C.B.F. Co. Berwick District Mattole Lumber Company Culver & Port Clinton RR Saint Louis Plantation Railroad Imperial Taiwan Railways and more. Founded originally in 1849 and incorporated in 1867 the Company initially produced mining machinery castings and forgings and by 1888 had acquired the Wyoming Valley Manufacturing Co. makers of locomotives which quickly became the majority of their business. Riding the industrial steel boom during World War I VIW quickly grew during the 1920’s and by the end of the 1920’s employed over 1600 employees manufacturing gasoline and diesel-electric locomotives and electric hoists. We could find no biographical information on C.W. Bowen but he was responsible for leading the VIW efforts to expand into the California market selling them State Belt #4 locomotive which was the first Vulcan to run on oil in 1911. The majority of the company’s factory negatives reside with the Hagley and four of these appear in their finding aid but the rest are not clearly listed.
