RDG 2-8-0 #765 - Philadelphia & Reading
Title:  RDG 2-8-0 #765 - Philadelphia & Reading
Description:  Here is another example of the 1906 I2-e class Consolidation built by the Reading shops. Again, small 50" drivers, 175 psi boiler pressure, small 20"x24" cylninders and an overall tractive effort of 28,560 lb made it a very modest performer but not able to handle the longer, heavier trains that appeared later. Date is approximate. Forrest W. Trittenbach photo.
