PRR 1361, K-4S, 1955         
#1361. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide of a photo by Fred Kern that was taken near Cliffwood, New Jersey, on 29 January 1955. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #1361, a K-4S (4-6-2) "Pacific" built in Juniata during May of 1918, retired in September of 1956, enshrined at the Horseshoe Curve on 08 June 1957, restored for excursion service during 1987-1988, then withdrawn from service and disassembled due to safety concerns, and still not reassembled to wholeness. In this context, it's pulling Train #718 from Bay Head Junction to Newark with connecting service to Penn Station in New York City.
