Consler. Here is the second of two successive photos featuring Pennsylvania Railroad engine #650, an L-1S (2-8-2) "Mikado" built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works during December of 1916 and retired in October of 1956 after 40 years of faithful service. In this context, it's pulling a six-car local freight and an N-5 cabin car. The photographer's name, the exact date, and the location are not recorded.
