C&O 2-8-4 #1225 - ex-PM         
Another closeup view of the stately 1941 Lima built 2-8-4 Berkshire drivers and bird droppings while it was on display at Michigan State University. Originally it was Pere Marquette #1225 but absorbed into the C&O roster in 1947. Now it is the famous "Polar Express" loco as it served as the prototype for the Disney movie. An unknown photographer did the photo slide study. The date is approximate.
