Posted by DCmetrogreen on Tue Aug 18 14:18:56 2009 A blast from the past! See if you can identify when and/or where this photo was taken and if you know what is pictured.(Sorry about the quality. I scanned it out of an old picture album and couldn't actually remove the picture itself). By dcmetrogreen at 2009-08-18 |

I apologize in advance for necroposting, but I just stumbled upon this old guess the location thread I started and I figured it's about time I gave the answer. This is the PRR K4 1361 at the corner of W. Philadelphia St and N. Pershing Ave in York, PA. This was a special excursion for the 150th anniversary of the Northern Central Railway in the 1980's. |
