PRR 4664, I-1SA, #2 of 5, 1956         
Elmira. Here is the second of five successive duplicate 35mm color slides of photos by David Connor that were taken on 21 March 1956. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #4664, an I-1SA (2-10-0) "Decapod" built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works as an I-1S during November of 1923, rebuilt in Juniata as an I-1SA in July of 1943, and retired in March of 1957 after 34 years of faithful service. Close observation reveals that there is a tail-end pusher locomotive adding to the drama! The slide mount is annotated "Route 14 Crossing." ("Stoneborobranch"; #12 of 34)
