New Haven Railroad Baldwin I-5 class 4-6-4 Hudson steam locomotive 1405, seen stopped on Union Station yard tracks with a cab crew member checking things out at New Haven, Connecticut, May 5, 1940

            New Haven Railroad Baldwin I-5 class 4-6-4 Hudson steam locomotive 1405, seen stopped on Union Station yard tracks with a cab crew member checking things out at New Haven, Connecticut, May 5, 1940.  An employee (possibly the engineer or fireman) is standing in front of the Hancock Turbo-Injector (aka: poor man's feed-water heater) which is located behind the rear driver.  The bow tie looking device mounted just above the front driver is the Valve Pilot Device used for precise cutoff regulation to improve efficiency.  Notice the special style of the Baldwin Disk Drivers that are used on this locomotive, because they are different than the normal Baldwin Disc Drivers.
