PRR 8949, H-10S, 1949 |
| Description: |
Coal Power. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide of a photo by J.J. Buckley that was taken near Englewood, Illinois, in December of 1949. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engine #8949 and three GM-EMD "EF" Class units whose numbers are not recorded. #8949 was built in Juniata as an H-8C during March of 1912, rebuilt as an H-9SC in February of 1916, rebuilt as an H-10S in April of 1920, and retired in May of 1950 after 38 years of faithful service. Nothin' like some steam-powered help on a freezin' Winter's morn! |
