"Trains" Magazine, November 1948         
Here is a photo taken by Mr. D. Allen Bauer. It was published originally in the November 1948 issue of "Trains" magazine, pages 8-9. Partial Caption: "What's this, the snout of a Pennsylvania T-1? No, it's the front end of PRR's new Baldwin passenger diesel, designed to suit the railroad." Shown here is PRR engine #5771, a BP-20 built in June of 1948, rated at 2,000 horsepower, and retired in May of 1965 after just 17 years of revenue service. Also of note here are two more railroad news items: "PRR extends program for new equipment" and "Baldwin gets a shot in the arm."
