Cooke
Locomotive
The Cooke Locomotive and Machine Works began construction of
locomotives in 1852, and continued into the 20th Century as a division
of ALCO although in
later years much of the production centered on rotary snowplows. A pair
of Cooke-built 4-4-0s
survive today. In 2007,
Cooke's adminstration building was refurbished to house condominiums
under National Parks Service guidelines to preserve the building's
historic character.
