Description:  Here is page six of a 13-page article by Mr. William Moedinger, Jr., entitled "East Broad Top." It was published originally in the August 1941 issue of "Trains" magazine, page 9. Top Right-Hand Photo, Partial Caption: "Mikado No. 15 is one of two similar engines, the other being No. 14. Like all EBT motive power, she is Baldwin-built." Engine #15 was built during February of 1914. Bottom Photos, Partial Caption: "Rocky Ridge is reached only by East Broad Top rails. Railfan excursion train is shown standing at the station....

EBT 15, 2-8-2, 1960
Title:  EBT 15, 2-8-2, 1960
Description:  EBT. Here is an original photo that I took of an East Broad Top Railroad locomotive in Rockhill Furnace, Pennsylvania, on 18 August 1960. Shown here is EBT steam engine #15, a 2-8-2 narrow-gauge locomotive that was built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works during February of 1914. Its crew has just coupled onto a five-car tourist excursion train and will pull it to the end of the line at Colgate Grove, where they will uncouple #15 from the train and hand it off to EBT engine #12.
