RDG 2-8-0 #939 Camelback - Philadelphia & Reading  Contributor's Pick!       
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.
