Coal Power. Here is the first of two successive duplicate 35mm color slides showing (L to R) Pennsylvania Railroad engine #370 (with double-dip tenders) and an ALCo road switcher whose road number is not recorded. #370 is an L-1S (2-8-2) "Mikado" built in Juniata during June of 1916 and retired in September of 1959 after 43 years of service.
