PRR 6100, S-1, 1940         
WB. Here is an image of a photo by an unidentified photographer that was taken in Flushing, New York, on 26 April 1940. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #6100, the S-1 (6-4-4-6) "Big Engine" built in Juniata during January of 1939 and retired in January of 1949 after just ten years of experimental service. It's on display at the New York World's Fair. Looks to me like the two men pictured here are tune-in' it up for another day of stationary rockin' 'n' rollin'. William E. Burket Collection.
