Title:
"Trains" Centennial Issue, Page 47, 1946
Description:
Here is page 47 of the April 1946 issue of "Trains" magazine. It's the eighth page of an eight-page story by Mr. A.C. Kalmbach entitled "Epoch of Electrification." Top Photo Caption: "Steam locomotives pulling freight on the electrified lines were greeted with loud cheers by steam fans, but the plans actually anticipated this as a much more efficient way of meeting exceptional traffic peaks than to provide excess generating capacity." Photo by C.A. Brown. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #3631, an L-1S (2-8-2) "Mikado" built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works during March of 1916 and retired in April of 1955 after 39 years of faithful service.
