BO 2-6-6-2 #7504 - Baltimore & Ohio |
| Description: |
Long and powerful are two words that describe this Alco-Schenectady 2-6-6-2 built in July of 1914 originally as Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburgh $704. . In 1932, it was added officially to the B&O roster as #7504. The loco lasted until April of 1951 when it was sold for scrap. That must have made a huge pile of scrap metal! Original specs - 57" drivers, 200 psi boiler pressuer, 23.5x37" high pressure cylinders, 37x32" low pressure cylinders, engine wt of 429,000 lb and an impressive 80,000 lb tractive force. This is a Harold K. Vollrath photo |

Across the valley lays the twisted wreckage of the once mighty bridge. Note the trees also laying in the same direction, a sure sign of a tornado. |

| Description: |
Thanks to an unknown person at the horseshoe curve at Lewis Run for the suggestion of this bridge, and due to the train having to take a second run at the hill out of Lewis Run, I was spared extra time to find this spot off of my routine chase. SAFETY NOTE: I could see just as far behind me too. |
