Florida East Coast Railway 153
Florida East Coast Railway 153, Steam locomotive at Gold Coast Railroad Museum, Florida, United States.
The Florida East Coast Railway 153 features a 4-6-2 Whyte configuration and weighs 126,500 pounds with a driver diameter of 68 inches.
Built by American Locomotive Company in 1922, this engine pulled a train carrying President Calvin Coolidge to Miami in 1928 during its service period.
The locomotive represents the technological advancement of American rail transport in the early 20th century at the Gold Coast Railroad Museum.

The engine operated the final train service between Miami and Key West before the 1935 hurricane destroyed the connecting railroad bridges.
