PRR 3768, K-4S, 1936         
TRB. Here is an original glass-negative official photo that was taken at the Rockville Bridge near Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, on 3 November 1936. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #3768, a K-4S (4-6-2) "Pacific" built in Juniata during June of 1920, streamlined in 1936, and retired in October of 1953 after 33 years of faithful service. In this context, it's pulling a 13-car passenger train past ROCKVILLE Tower, and is about to cross the Bridge on its way to Altoona and points West.
