PRR 4459, I-1SA, #2 of 2, c. 1955         
Parade 2. Here is the second of two duplicate 35mm color slides of photos by David Connor. Prominent here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #4459, an I-1SA (2-10-0) "Decapod" built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works as an I-1S during May of 1923, rebuilt in Juniata as an I-1SA in January of 1940, and retired in August of 1959 after 36 years of service. At the left are two unidentified GM-EMD diesels powering an Erie Railroad passenger train. Mr. Ken May suggests that the latter may have been using PRR tracks during the aftermath of Hurricane Diane. The exact date and the location are not recorded. Produced and distributed by FJC Products of Newport, Delaware.
