"Trains" Magazine, March 1952
Description:
Here is a photo taken by Mr. Glenn Grabill, Jr. It was published originally in the March 1952 issue of "Trains & Travel" magazine, page 43. Partial Caption: "Before dieselization, the Pennsylvania Railroad owned 582 hippopotamus-shaped I-1 class Decapods. No. 4247, shown here on a caboose hop near Canton, O., was turned out by Baldwin in 1923...." PRR engine #4247 is an I-1SA (2-10-0) "Decapod" built by Baldwin as an I-1S during June of 1923, rebuilt in Juniata as an I-1SA in December of 1941, and retired in March of 1950 after 27 years of faithful service. The number of the N-6 cabin car is not recorded.
