NBA TRAIN FACT 1: According to Steamindex.com, The Furness Railway 115 (N1) Class 4-6-4T's were 13ft 6in high. I mention this because, upon checking with the most trust worthy source on the planet, Wikipedia. The Gresley A1 & A3 Pacific's were 13ft 1in high.
The Baltic's where taller than Gresley's thoroughbreds by 5 inches.
