Viewing Album: PRR: 1st Restoration of K-4S #1361 ~ 1986
By:
Thomas C. Ayers
Dates:
5/30/1986 - 5/30/1986
Album Info:
Here are 12 original photographs that were taken during the first restoration of Pennsylvania Railroad K-4S (4-6-2) "Pacific" #1361. The photographer's name and the exact date are not recorded. I purchased all 12 color negatives in a single eBay auction conducted by Mr. Kermit Black on Friday, 18 February 2022. Also included are two related images from a subsequent restoration effort via the Edward Kaspriske Collection.
