Top Photo Caption: "Northumberland's roundhouse became a museum of sorts in the 1960s for a variety of preserved PRR steam power. In repose in January 1966 are a pair of 2-8-0s, H10s 7688 and H6b 2846, and E6s 4-4-2 460." Bottom Photo Caption: "Baldwin DS4-4-660 9113 looks fresh out of the paint shop on March 16, 1965, but thanks to its mechanical unreliability, it will be retired in a little more than a year." Engine #9113 is a BS-6A built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in August of 1948, rated at 660 horsepower, and retired in May of 1966 after just 18 years of revenue service. |
