About This Design

Baldwin Locomotive Works,Eddystone Pennsylvania Postcard

Baldwin Locomotive Works,Eddystone Pennsylvania Postcard

From www.railphotoexpress.biz; Baldwin Locomotive Works moved to Eddystone Pennsylvania in the Late 1920's.The Office Tower still stands today Baldwin built many more steam locomotives at its cramped 196 acres Broad Street Philadelphia Pennsylvania shop but would begin to a shift in production to a 616 acres site located at Spring Street in nearby Eddystone, Pennsylvania, in 1906. Broad Street was constricted, but even so, it was a huge complex, occupying 8 square city blocks from Broad to 18th St. and Spring Garden to the Reading Railroad tracks just past Noble Street in Philadelphia. Eddystone on the other hand was spread out over 600 acres. Its capacity was well over 3000 locomotives per year. The move from Broad Street was completed in the late 1920s. The Office Tower still stands today near The (Pennsylvania Railroad) Amtrak Northeast Corridor. Although the company was very successful as a producer of steam locomotives, its transition to the production of diesels was far less so. Later, when the early demand for diesel locomotives to replace steam tapered off, Baldwin could not compete in the marketplace. It stopped producing locomotives in 1956 and went out of business in 1972.

Exactly what I wanted, it is very difficult to acquire Vintage Australiana items. I am so please that I ordered 8 I will be using them for my scrap booking and Junk Journaling. Gorgeous, Zazzle produced and delivered exactly what I wanted.

Way better quality than I ever expected. I love the colours, font and quality of the card. I'm so pleased I found Zazzle as it is near impossible to purchase Vintage or Retro Australian memorabilia online. I chose this design when I purchased them. They are perfect for my projects. I was very specific about what I wanted. I know where to come now when I need to order similar items.

Perfect for the occasion I was using it for. I was able to delete the lines so I could put in more wording. Had an envelope so the address side wasn't necessary. Print quality and paper quality lovely.
