ERIE 4-6-2 #2928 |
| Description: |
Still fairly new to the Erie roster is this handsome 4-6-2 Pacific. Built as a heavy USRA 4-6-2 Pacific by Alco-Richmond in March of 1919, this muscle added a much needed boost to the Erie passenger service. It was rebuilt to inclued an Elesco feedwater heater which bumped up the tractive effort some. The loco ended up in it later years as part of the North New Jersey commuter service. After nearly 32 years of service, the loco was scrapped by Luria Bros & Co in Buffalo, NY on 11/17/1950 This is a Paul Prescott photo. |

This is a photo by Paul Prescott of Erie 4-6-2 #2928 in Chicago, IL. From the load of caol in the tender and steam visible, it appears to be ready for another run east, maybe even the Erie Limited.
