PRR 5818, BH-50, 1963
Title:  PRR 5818, BH-50, 1963
Description:  Centipedes. Here is an original photo that I took at the Erecting & Machine Shop storage yard in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 10 August 1963. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #5818, a BH-50 built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works as a BP-60 passenger engine rated at 3,000 horsepower in January of 1948, later regeared and reclassified as a 2,250 horsepower BH-50 for freight and helper duty, and retired in April of 1962 after just 14 years of revenue service. Note that its builder's badge has been removed in preparation for scrapping.

NW 4-8-4 #613 - Norfolk & Western
Title:  NW 4-8-4 #613 - Norfolk & Western
Description:  This was the last 4-8-4 "J" class to be built by the N&W Roanoke shops Such an iconic, streamlined beauty! According to www.steamlocomotive.com "The most powerful 4-8-4s to run for any railroad, and one of the finest steam locomotive designs ever produced, the Js combined large cylinders, high steam pressure, and low drivers to generate a high tractive effort. Available power increased when boiler pressure was raised later to 300 psi (20.7 bar), yielding an indicated tractive effort of 80,000 lb." An unknown photographer took this photo.
