PRR 7862, BS-6A, 1967 |
Description: |
Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide of a photo by Mr. R. Porter that was taken near Lewes, Delaware, in June of 1967. Prominent here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #7862, a BS-6A switcher built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works as number "5962" in March of 1948, rated at 660 horsepower, and renumbered "7862" in preparation for the PRR-NYC merger. In this context, it's pulling PRR Clearance Car #497125 and one of those rare four-digit Railway Express Agency cabin cars. |
