Great Northern Steam Roster


With this page I will attempt to list most if not all of the Steam Locomotives that appeared on the Great Northern Roster over the years. Unless otherwise noted, this information is from the must have book "The Great Northern Railway-A Pictorial Study"by Charles and Dorothy Wood. However, this book is now out of Print. (The Public Library really comes in handy).
