PRR 4-6-2 #3870         
Powerful, fast and reliable are three wods that explain why this K-4s 4-6-2 Pacific class dominated Pennsy passenger service for decades. Built by the PRR Juniata Shops in June of 1923 (serial #3765), it ran service for nearly 25 years before being scrapped in April of 1948 when diesels began appearing on the system. J.R. With Warren Evans help (see comment below), the exact location has been identified as Rose Lake Enginehouse in E. St. Louis, Ill. Thanks Warren for your help! J.R. Quinn photo
