My very first visit to the Strasburg Railroad - July 27, 1963 |
Description: |
Number 31 was the road engine that day. We took the ride to Paradise. I'm pretty sure that the PRR engineer's hat that I'm wearing in this photo can more recently be seen on my grandson these days... Me (age 10) and my brother Chuck (age 6). |

SRC 31, 0-6-0, 1963 |
Description: |
SRC-1963. Here is an original photo that I took of a Strasburg Rail Road locomotive near Strasburg, Pennsylvania, on 11 August 1963. Shown here is the head end of SRC engine #31, an 0-6-0 built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works during August of 1908 ~ some 55 years earlier! It is pulling our excursion train to Paradise, where the SRC connects with the Pennsylvania Railroad ~ whereupon it will uncouple, pass around to the other end of our train, recouple, and then pull the train back to the Strasburg Station. |

Shown here is SRC engine #31, an 0-6-0 built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works during August of 1908 ~ some 55 years earlier! It has uncoupled from our excursion train in Paradise (where the SRC connects with the Pennsylvania Railroad) and is passing around it to the other end of our train, where it will recouple and then pull the train back to the Strasburg Station. The wires in the background are PRR electrified catenary. |

Here is page two of a four-page camera study by William Moedinger entitled "Strasburg Rail Road." It was published originally in the May 1969 issue of "Railroad" magazine, page 19. Bottom Photo, Partial Caption: "Dependable 0-6-0 No. 31 is seen here with a westbound train of four wooden coaches." SRC engine #31 was built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works during August of 1908. According to Gary Everhart, "it has worn several numbers through the years": originally it was Grand Trunk Western's #1708; then Canadian National's #7157 circa 1923, renumbered CN #7240 in 1952, and renumbered CN #7312 in 1957; then purchased, reconditioned, and renumbered SRC #31 in 1960 ~ some 52 years after it first hit the rails! |

Riding the footboard |
Description: |
A practice long outlawed in day to day railroading, riding footboards continues on some museum operations, due to the historic equipment being exempt from the requirement that footboards be removed. The conductor of this train rides the footboard of the tender during this run around move at Leaman Place, adjacent to the ex PRR main line. |
