An interesting, possibly suspicious, pair of well dressed men seem to be working on the high stepping 80" drivers of this 1927 Baldwin built Pacific at the 24th Street station.. The loco was a P-7 class and generated an impressive 230 psi boiler pressure for its 27"x28" cylinder (diameter & stroke). It could produce a tractive effort of 49,882 lb. Later it was rebuilt by B&O shops in 1946 as P-7d streamline version. No photographer credit listed |
