PRR 2-10-4 #6465 - Pennsylvania RR
Title:  PRR 2-10-4 #6465 - Pennsylvania RR
Description:  As powerful as it looks in this photo, PRR 2-10-4 #6465 was just one of 125 PRR Altoona Shops built locomotives. These locomotives created 275 psi of boiler pressure and produced an impressive 95,484 lb of tractive force. The J1 class of 2-10-4's lasted until the late 1950's even though diesels were taking over the roster. This is a J.R. Quinn photo.

PRR 2-10-4 #6466 - Pennsylvania RR
Title:  PRR 2-10-4 #6466 - Pennsylvania RR
Description:  Waiting with its string of freight is PRR 2-10-4 #6466. The massive and powerful loco was built by PRR's own Altoona Shops in February of 1943, just one of an army of 125 of them. The loco generated an impressive 275 psi boiler pressure and created 95,484 lb of tractive effort making it a formidable force on the rails. No wonder that the Pennsylvania kept them around until the late 1950's even though diesels were solidly taking over the roster. No location was given for this photo taken by J.R. Quinn.

PRR 6468 Eastbound on the Pittsburgh-St Louis Main Line
Title:  PRR 6468 Eastbound on the Pittsburgh-St Louis Main Line
Description:  While waiting for the day passenger train for a return inspection trip back to his home base in Anderson, IN, my father, who was track supervisor on the PRR's Richmond Branch snapped this slide of a Pennsy Class J-1 behemoth. The J-1 class was Juniata built, but copied from a C&O design. It lacks the belpaire firebox / boiler commonly found on other PRR steam locomotives, and sports a keystone smokebox number plate instead of the round number plates found on most other classes of PRR freight locomotives. According to Dad, the J-1 was a water hog; even with that big tender, it had to be watered frequently. Dad also said the J-1 class tended to stay on PRR Lines West in the twilight years of Pennsy steam. All Pennsy J-1's were scrapped; none survive.

PRR 2-10-4 #6473 - Pennsylvania RR
Title:  PRR 2-10-4 #6473 - Pennsylvania RR
Description:  Coming around the Horseshoe curve with its unit coal train is PRR 2-10-4 #6473. With its impressive tractive effort of 95,484 lb, it could easily marshal these cars. Built by the PRR's Altoona Shops in February of 1943, the loco served the Pennsy well but even so, its service lasted barely 14 years before being retired and scrapped. Diesels had proven their worth even over a quality powerhouse as this 2-10-4! No photographer or date was given for the photo but it might be a J.R. Quinn photo.
