Thomas C. Ayers
Dates:

Album Info:
Here are 30 portraits of Pennsylvania Railroad diesel-electric locomotives built by General Electric. All of them come from 2.75" x 4.50" photos that I purchased in a single eBay auction conducted by Mr. Nathan Dahms on Sunday, 21 March 2021. The photographer's name, the locomotive road number(s), the exact date, and the location are cited when available.
