Here is a photo taken by an unidentified photographer that was published originally in the April 1941 issue of "Railroad" magazine, page 47. Partial Caption: "Pennsylvania K-4 Number 5458 cants to a curve at Shrewsbury Station, Pa., while a clerk in the mail car behind gets ready for a pickup from a trackside crane." #5458 is a K-4S (4-6-2) "Pacific" built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works during March of 1927 and retired in June of 1948 after just 21 years of revenue service. (The essence of railroading.) |
