PRR 4230, I-1SA, #1 of 4, 1957
Title:  PRR 4230, I-1SA, #1 of 4, 1957
Description:  Kern. Here is the first of four successive duplicate 35mm color slides of photos by Fred Kern that were taken near Vail, Pennsylvania, on 4 May 1957. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #4230, an I-1SA (2-10-0) "Decapod" built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works as an I-1S during June of 1923, rebuilt in Juniata as an I-1SA in August of 1934, and retired in October of 1959 after 36 years of faithful service. Close observation suggests that there is a rear-end pusher locomotive adding to the drama!
