Chesapeake Beach Railway #6
Title:  Chesapeake Beach Railway #6
Description:  Built by the Pittsburgh Locomotive & Car Works in March of 1893 with construction number #1414, #6 was originally constructed for use on the Pittsburgh & Lake Erie Railroad as their #98 and was shipped by Pittsburgh on March 22, 1893. The locomotive served the P&LE for about a decade pulling ore and steel products faithfully throughout the rust belt until it was sold to the Chesapeake Beach Railway in 1905. The locomotive served on the railroad until about 1924 when it was sidelined and scrapped at the Seat Pleasant, Maryland, shops. This photograph shows #6 in a decrepit state in the deadline waiting to be scrapped in the yards of the Seat Pleasant, Maryland, shops.
