Description:  Here is page ten of a 32-page cover article entitled "Juice Jacks: The Electric Locomotive Comes Of Age." It was published originally in the July 1944 issue of "Railroad" magazine, page 17. Top Photo Caption: "Up goes the safety valve of the 852 in a blast of indignation, as B&O motor 1 tweaks her nose out of the Baltimore Tunnel in 1895." Engine #1 was built by General Electric. Many thanks to Mr. Scott Schroeder for clarifying the pedigree of this locomotive (see comment below).
