| Mann. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide via Al Chione that was taken at the Passenger Station in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, in April of 1949. The photographer is not identified. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engine #5828 and another "Centipede" whose road number is not recorded. Both are BP-60's built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works as BP-60's rated at 3,000 horsepower each for passenger service, but later regeared and reclassified as BH-50's rated at 2,250 horsepower each for freight only. #5828 was built in November of 1948 and retired in April of 1962 after just 14 years of revenue service. Partially visible at the right is the Reading Railroad's Passenger Terminal. ("PrrFan18n") |
