Reading T-1 4-8-4 2102 at Bethlehem, PA during the winter of 1972. This illustrious 4-8-4 was one of four T-1 class 4-8-4s preserved by the Reading Railroad for excursion service in the famed "Rambles" of the early 1960s. She survives today, although is not currently operational. Photo by Stephen C. Baldwin. Fondness and enduring thanks to my Dad, Carl R. Baldwin (1931-2003), who did so much to encourage my railroad photography through numerous "train chases" in the 1970s through 1990s. Dad was with me on this trip of February 5th, 1972, one of the coldest days on record but one of the best for steam locomotive photography. |
