WM 2-10-0 #1111 - Western Maryland  Contributor's Pick!       
Normally I don't post photos of older photos but this one is another exception due to the quality and beautiful action that was captured. A note on the back of the photo states "Shot near Cumberland, MD. Taken from an old photo 2 1/2 x 4" taken by a box camera in 1938 (I have the neg of this)" by an unknown photographer. SpecfIcs - I-2 class, 61" drivers, impressive 240 psi boiler pressure, 30x32" cylinders, engine weight of 419,280 lb, impressive tractive effort of 96,315 lb. The date used in 1938 is approximate.
