| Here is a photo taken by Mr. Paul Gibbs. It was published originally in the January 1949 issue of "Trains" magazine, page 51. Partial Caption: "Pennsylvania's T-1 No. 5500 ~ standing in St. Louis Union Station with the 'American' ~ was originally built by the PRR's Juniata Shops, and fitted with poppet valves of the oscillating-cams type. But this recent photo shows her in a new rig with Franklin's poppet valves using rotary cams." PRR engine #5500 is a T-1 (4-4-4-4) "Duplex" built in Juniata during November of 1945 and retired in December of 1953 after just eight years of revenue service. |
