PRR 3750 into 1737, K-4S, c. 1959

         

Here is duplicate 35mm color slide by an unidentified photographer that was taken in Northumberland, Pennsylvania, c. 1959. Shown here is a schizophrenic Pennsylvania Railroad steam locomotive. Both the Keystone on the smokebox door and the number under the cab's window read "1737." In actuality, though, this is PRR engine #3750 ~ a K-4S (4-6-2) "Pacific" built in Juniata during March of 1920, renumbered "1737" in 1958, and presently on display as number "3750" at the Railroad Museum of Pennsylvania in Strasburg.
