| Description: |
SF-Prints. Here is a print by an unidentified photographer that was taken near Cove, Pennsylvania, c. 1957. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #6758, an M-1B (4-8-2) "Mountain" built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works as an M-1A during June of 1930, rebuilt in Juniata as an M-1B in December of 1948, and retired in February of 1958 after 28 years of faithful service. In this context, it's rockin' 'n' rollin' with a fully-loaded mineral train out of Altoona and the coal mines of Western Pennsylvania. Note the trainphone apparatus on the tender's deck. Wave to the Engineman! Brad Mann Collection. |
