| Here is page three of an eight-page article by Bert Pennypacker entitled "Who's The No. 2 Ore Hauler?" It was published originally in the September 1962 issue of "Trains" magazine, page 36. Photo Caption: "Import ore was often dusted in cinders in the summer of 1956. At Denholm, Pa., on August 30 a pair of M-1 4-8-2's were hammering west with a seemingly endless train of ore-laden hoppers behind their big tanks." Photo by Don Wood. Shown here (F to R) is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #6717 and another locomotive whose road number is not recorded. #6717 is an M-1B (4-8-2) "Mountain" built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works as an M-1A during April of 1930, rebuilt in Juniata as an M-1B in March of 1948, and retired in September of 1958 after 28 years of faithful service. |
