| Westing. Here is a photo that was published originally in Fred Westing's 1974 book entitled "Pennsy Steam And Semaphores," page 99. Partial Caption: "The eastbound Gotham Limited, train 54, as it passes around the Horseshoe Curve with a double-header of two K4s class locomotives in 1929. The first engine was No. 5072 formerly assigned to the Maryland Division." Prominent here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #5072, a K-4S (4-6-2) "Pacific" built in Juniata during May of 1917 and retired in January of 1949 after 32 years of faithful service. Photo taken at the Kittanning Point Passenger Station. Kittanning Point proper dominates the distance. |
