Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe 2926 is a class "2900" 4-8-4 type steam locomotive built in May 1944 by the Baldwin Locomotive Works for the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway (ATSF). It was used to pull passenger and fast freight trains, mostly throughout New Mexico, until retired from service in 1953. In 1956, ATSF donated no. 2926 to the City of Albuquerque for static display.
In 1999, the non-profit New Mexico Steam Locomotive and Railroad Historical Society purchased no. 2926 for restoration. In 2021, no. 2926 moved under its own power for the first time in almost 70 years. It is the world's heaviest 4-8-4, and the sole operating class 2900 locomotive among the last six in existence. The Society, under the trade name New Mexico Heritage Rail, plans to operate historic rail excursion trains behind no. 2926 between Albuquerque and Las Vegas, New Mexico.
