| Here is the first of two successive original photos that were taken in Shamokin, Pennsylvania, c. 1945. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #4554, an I-1SA (2-10-0) "Decapod" built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works as an I-1S during August of 1923, rebuilt in Juniata as an I-1SA in September of 1944, and retired in September of 1956 after 33 years of faithful service. It's parked at a coaling-sanding facility, awaiting orders. The photographer's name and the exact date are not recorded. Roy Healey Collection; #2 of 16. |
