- Number 404 at Eklutna in1949. "The 400 class was originally the 500
class. They were renumbered as the 400 class some time after 1942,
I think. You actually have a picture of another member of the
400 class, #502. That particular picture was taken before they were
renumbered." Luke Smith, Brookline, MA
- Number 404 (builder number 7877) was built Lima Locomotive for the U.S.
Army in February 1942. The Alaska Railroad acquired it in 1946-47.
