Here you can find photos
of railroads of the past in black & white, unless otherwise
noted. Note, this does NOT include Conrail or any other recent
fallen flag. This photo gallery mainly includes railroads such as pre-NS
era, N&W in the steam
days, PRR, and so on.
C&O
2-8-4 Kanawha no. 2701 is sitting at the
Marion Union Station, Marion, Ohio, possibly in the
'40s.
Overhead view of the PRR Crestline
roundhouse area in 1947. Crestline, Ohio.
Lake Superior & Ishpeming 2-8-0
no. 34
at an unknown roundhouse location. This is an interesting photo, as it is a
photo of the Western Maryland Scenic's no. 734 still in LS&I
service. This engine is also the direct sister engine to HVSR no. 33 (ex-LS&I
no. 33).
A N&W steamer is sitting under the
coaling tower at Portsmouth Yard, Portsmouth, Ohio. It looks
as though a man is shoveling up some of the excess coal on the ground.
Two NYC steamers (one is no. 1968) sit at the coaling area at the NYC Galion Yard,
Galion, Ohio. This yard is now completely gone. Only a couple
tracks of the yard are still there that CSXT uses to store engines and various
MOW rolling stock. Conrail used to do this as well prior to the split.
PRR K-4 no. 3874 looks as though she's
undergoing some repairs at the Crestline roundhouse.
PRR no. 6785 (what type is this?) is
crossing the diamonds at the Crestline Station. The station is
now completely gone, the tracks have been torn-up/relocated, and the
signals are now all gone. The track to the left (from cab point-of-view) is the one that has been moved about
100 feet
over to make room for the interchange track for CSXT traffic.
