Here is an image of an official photo that was taken at the Pennsylvania Railroad's Locomotive Test Plant in Altoona, Pennsylvania, c. 1911. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #89, an E-6S (4-4-2) "Atlantic" built in Juniata as an E-6A during May of 1912, rebuilt as an E-6S in 1914, and retired in March of 1948 after 36 years of faithful service. Note the massive piston rod extensions. Photo Credit: Mr. Jud Powell; http://towns-and-nature.blogspot.com/2016/01/altoona-pa-prrs-car-shops-roundhouse-2.html |
