RDG 2-8-0 #939 Camelback - Philadelphia & Reading
Description:
Here is an interesting looking camelback built by the Burnham, Wms & Co (Baldwin) back in 1887. Small 50" drivers and only producing 150 psi boiler pressure severly limited this loco's power. Most in this class were scrapped in the 'teens. The date is approximate. No photographer was listed for the photo.

RDG 2-8-0 #946 Camelback - Philadelphia & Reading
Description:
Here's a good looking 1888 Burnham, Wms & Co built camelback still ready to work. Most of these small driver, low boiler pressure camelbacks were scrapped in the 'teens but a few did last into the 1920's. The date is approximate. Forrest W. Trittenbach receives the photo credit.

RDG 4-4-0C #406 - Reading Co
Description:
Beautiful original photo of Reading Shops built 4-4-0 C "American type" camelback delivered in 1911 as a member of the D-8c class. In 1920, several of the class were superheated, redesigned with Walschaert radial valve gears and reclassified as D-8sd. This locomotive made it to June of 1945 before being retired and scrapped. No photographer or date given but since the Walschaert vale gears are present, the photo was taken after 1920. I left the photo in its sepia coloring as it is fitting for this locomotive to be seen as a beautiful "golden oldie"

RDG 4-6-0C #560 - Philadelphia & Reading (Reading)
Description:
Both RDG 560 & its sister #556 are sitting in the Newton, PA, yard with steam up and ready to roll. Built by Burham, Wms & Co (Baldwin) in 1890, this was originally an L1-a class. Original specifics - 61.5" drivers, modest 145 psi boiler pressure for its double set of 20x24" cylinders, engine weight of 136,525 lb, modest tractive effort of 19,239. Between 1921-29, the class was rebuilt by Reading shops and reclassified as their L-3se class as it appears here. Superheated, it produced an impressive 200 psi boiler pressure and delivered an improved tractive effot of 34,785 lb. No photographer listed for this photo. I have to admit, I find the camelback locos weird but fascinating creatures in the history of railroading!

RDG 4-6-0C #615 - Reading Co
Description:
Action shot of the 1915 4-6-0C ten wheeler camelback being prepped by a crew member for another passenger run. Built by the Reading shops, it was a class L-7 camelback, an odd but still interesting locomotive that allowed the Reading to burn less fuel efficient coal than the traditional locomotives. This appears to be an older reprint and didn't list the location, date or photographer.

The fate of this 1911 Reading shops built ten wheel camelback is uncertain. Missing its bell which would be between the smokestack and sand dome makes me think it might be in a scrap line.

RDG 4-6-0C #653 - Reading Co
Description:
Nice photo of the 1911 Reading Shops built 4-6-0C ten wheeler camelback, class L-8se. Notable on this unusual locomotive is the mammoth Wooten firebox which allowed the Reading to burn less efficient coal than traditionally shaped fireboxes, hence making these camelbacks a financial success at the sacrifice of human safety and comfort. The entire class remained in service until after WW II. No exact date or photographer listed for the photo.

RDG 2-8-0 #959 Camelback - Philadelphia & Reading
Description:
The fireman stands ready and waiting for the engineer to signal. This is another good looking camelback - if you don't mind the "Beauty-and-the-Beast" appearance. Small 50.5" drivers and producing 175 psi boiler pressure with a tractive effort of only 22,399 lb limited its usefulness as the cars and trains grew in length and weight. The location listed on the back of the photo was Mine Hill Junction - not familiar with the area but think it is near Cressona. Can anyone verify this? No photographer was listed.
