| Here is a photo taken by Mr. Bud Rothaar. It was published originally in the October 1957 issue of "Trains" magazine, page 8. Partial Caption: "In her 39 years of service, K-4 No. 1361 rolled up mileage equivalent to 100 trips around the world." #1361 is a K-4S (4-6-2) "Pacific" built in Juniata during May of 1918, retired in September of 1956, enshrined at the Horseshoe Curve on 8 June 1957, and restored for excursion service in April of 1987. Also visible on the right is a pair of unidentified Baldwin-built "Centipedes" proceeding around the Curve and down to East Altoona where they will begin yet another helper/pusher run up "The Mountain." |
