| Here is the first of six original successive photos recording the odd odyssey of old #39. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #39, an L-1S (2-8-0) "Mikado" built in Juniata during 1915 and retired in September of 1954 after 39 years of faithful service. Here, it's about to cross a local highway pulling two regular freight cars. The names of the photographer and the dude pictured here, plus the date and the location, are not recorded. Roy Healey Collection. |
