Re:Re:RE: RE: (erielack) Erie K5, K5a [was PSC Erie K5b]



Ooops!  I can answer one of my my own questions.  A picture, dated 5/29/39, of 2960 before rebuild with vanderbilt tender and a full set of BoxPok drivers is in Locomotive Quarterly, vol. 11 #2, p 17.  And in Biernacki, p 28.  A very pretty and completely unique arrangement -- and limited to about a year's existence, since the locomotive was wrecked on 5/12/40.

They offer K5b  variations which include one with BoxPok drivers, single side-mounted air pump and vanderbilt tender.  Does photographic evidence of this configuration exist?

Randy Brown, seeking historic veracity.
