The Lehigh Valley used the 4-8-4, which they dubbed “Wyoming” after the Wyoming Valley in Pennsylvania, primarily for freight trains. After one prototype each from Baldwin and ALCO, ten more were procured as T-1a and T-2a. These had the most powerful booster of all US steam locomotives in the rear bogie. The T-3 was built by Baldwin from 1934 and was also suitable for passenger trains with larger wheels. The T-2b first emerged during World War II and was derived from the T-2a. Due to the lack of material, however, this was less refined and thus weighed more heavily.
