Saddletank 0-6-0, shown here at Pittsburg, on September 5, 1959: http://abpr.railfan.net/abprphoto.cgi?d ... /dqs69.jpg It was at the Pennsylvania Trolley Museum, but I think sold since. Where is it today? |

Duquesne Slag 69 was BLW 61559 (11/30) originally American Bridge Co. 12 at Ambridge, PA, resold '43 via BR&L to DS 69. The photo shows it on display at the Pittsburgh B&O station for the 1959 NRHS convention. It was donated to Pennsylvania Trolley Museum (then known as Arden TM) in 1964, moved to the museum in 9/65. Active occasionally for several years 4-5 times a year. Out of service in 1970s. Sold 3/87 to a shopping center in Florida for static display. Before going to the museum it was repaired by B&O Glenwood Shop, the last steamer serviced there. Dave Hamley, President, PTM |
