RDG Alco RS3 #487 - Reading Co         
Built by Alco in June of 1952 (prime mover #12813), it served the Reading Company until the sale to Conrail in 1976. Not sure of its disposition, possibly scrapped or sold even before 1976 as it doesn't appear on the Conrail roster. A note on the back by photographer Paul Kuehner states "RDG RS3 487 - a yard drill."
