1399 was built by Baldwin in 1909 as 1301, a 4-4-6-2. It was quickly renumbered 1399 to make room for the 1297 Class Pacifics which were built in 1910. It was designed for passenger service, but the front drivers slipped during startup of a train. It was rebuilt at Topeka in October 1915 by shortening the boiler and removing the front engine. In 1919, the Jacobs-Shubert firebox was replaced as well as the boiler with boiler 6315-1. It was sold to Purdy Co for scrap on April 23, 1950.
