Presume at Reading. No date, but well back in the days of steam, before the Rambles. http://abpr.railfan.net/abprphoto.cgi?s ... dg1251.jpg |

What a great little engine. I think I read that she steamed until 1964 when her caretaker retired. Does anyone know the whole story? |

Is that the headlight she had at the end? I don't seem to recall photos of her with that type of headlight. Perhaps this is an older Reading type and she got a more modern one, or perhaps my memory is just failing me in my old age. Les |

That is not the headlight she has today. Joshua |
