uhhhh ....


I don't know how to break this to ya .....


but that's an Impact Driver

no wonder I can't figure out how to mount the blade on my miter saw...eer, impact driver.

That has to be a diesel piston by the shape of it's crown, the cone in the center and the ridges around the edge give it away. probably a 2 stroke because of rings in it's skirt.
baldwin did make alot of diesel-electrics

so being a bALDWIN PART IT MUST BE FROM A STEAM LOCO AS THEY DID NOT BUILD DEISELS.

So its not a combustion cylider but a steam driving cyclinder. Hmmmm...

Good luck looking up the part nos. Read this in one of the links above:

I think we may need to temporarily take away your internet fact checker title

A quick google search shows that Baldwin did make at least some diesel-electrics, although they are much better known for their steam locos, and did not survive very long into the diesel era.

I'd find a really big lathe to turn the other pieces to match that one rook you've got. Finally, my dreams of an all-weather, backyard chess set would be fulfilled!
