Description: |
Baera HC. Here is the fourth of twelve original photos by an unidentified photographer that were taken at the Horseshoe Curve near Altoona, Pennsylvania, c. 1946. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #4385, an I-1SA (2-10-0) "Decapod" built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works as an I-1S during January of 1923, rebuilt in Juniata as an I-1SA in January of 1943, and retired in April of 1953 after 30 years of faithful service. In this context, it's returning to Altoona for yet another helper/pusher run up "The Mountain." (Track 3) |
