The Baldwin Locomotive Works received an order for thirty-five "Berkshires" from the Erie in 1928. They were designated as Class S-3 and assigned road numbers 3350 through 3384. A final twenty "Berks" were ordered in 1928 and came from Lima in 1929. This group was designated as Class S-4 and carried road numbers 3385 through 3404. (www.steamlocomotive.com). The primary difference in these two classes are the road number and some tender details.
Both will be detailed as they were in the late 40s and early 50s with modified running gear and modernized appliances.
