SRC 31, 0-6-0, 1963
Description:
SRC-1963. Here is an original photo that I took of a Strasburg Rail Road locomotive near Strasburg, Pennsylvania, on 11 August 1963. Shown here is the head end of SRC engine #31, an 0-6-0 built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works during August of 1908 ~ some 55 years earlier! It is pulling our excursion train to Paradise, where the SRC connects with the Pennsylvania Railroad ~ whereupon it will uncouple, pass around to the other end of our train, recouple, and then pull the train back to the Strasburg Station.

Shown here is SRC engine #31, an 0-6-0 built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works during August of 1908 ~ some 55 years earlier! It has uncoupled from our excursion train in Paradise (where the SRC connects with the Pennsylvania Railroad) and is passing around it to the other end of our train, where it will recouple and then pull the train back to the Strasburg Station.

"Cherry Hill," 1963

As our excursion train ~ pulled by SRC engine #31 ~ returns to the Strasburg Station from Paradise, the little whistle-stop station at a place called "Cherry Hill" comes into view. The corn looks as high as an elephant's eye!
