My great, great uncle Robert F. McKee, Sr., was a design engineer at Baldwin and would give our father different builder's cards when he would see him. Here is one Uncle Rod helped to design, a 4-8-4 beauty for Northern Pacific. I'm thankful that I will be able to one day pass on some of these cards to my grandsons! This BLW builders photo card is from the John R. Doughty collection.
Dedicated to my father, John R. Doughty, Sr., and to his great uncle, Robert F. McKee, Sr., who worked at the Baldwin Locomotive Works as a senior design engineer, including working on the design for the Duluth, Missabe & Iron Range 2-8-8-4 Yellowstones
