PRR 0-6-0 #5261 - Pennsylvania RR |
Description: |
This little 0-6-0 yard goat started out as a swticher built by the PRR Juniata Shops for the Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad (PW&B) #5261. Later it was absorbed into the PRR roster and eventually scrapped in October of 1958. No date was given for the photo so an approximation was used. The photo is from the Bob Lorenz collection. |

PRR B1 #5688 - Pennsylvania RR |
Description: |
Built in November of 1934 by the Juniata shops with the electric gear supplied by Allis-Chalmers, this little boxcab reminds me of the Lionel boxcab #520 I have although sitting much higher ln its 0-6-0 trucks. This unit survived through the Penn Central merger only to be scrapped on 5/2/1971. Based on the beat up appearance and faded keystone logo, I "guess-timation" as being 1965 since no information was written on the back. Forrest Trittenbach photo. |
