PRR 5473, K-4S, 1954 |
Description: |
Portraits 5. Here is a steam locomotive portrait via Paul W. Prescott that was taken in Meadows Yard near Kearny, New Jersey, on 12 December 1954. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #5473, a K-4S (4-6-2) "Pacific" built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works during March of 1927, rebuilt in Juniata in 1944, and retired in February of 1956 after 29 years of faithful service. Looks to me like this venerable workhorse is headed to the Recycling Center. (#36 of 40) |

GTW 4-6-2 #5632 - Grand Trunk Western |
Description: |
Still standing proud is this 1929 Baldwin built Pacific in the Railroader's Park at Durand, MI, not far from the beautifully maintained GTW staKion it used to serve. This Pacific has high stepping 73" drivers, developed 200 psi boiler pressure for its 25"x28" diameter & stroke cylinders. According to the sign next to it, the engine weight was 257,000 lb. Definitely worth stopping by to see if in the area. |
