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.
