Title:  PRR 4-6-2 #5406
Description:  This is an example of a 1927 Baldwin built Pacific for the PRR. Being late in the game, it reflected all the tweeks and minor improvements made during the last 10 years of building the 4-6-2's. One of the few photos is this album with a location and date listed on the back of the photo. Bob Lorenz gets the photo credit.
