PRR 2-8-0 #9887  Contributor's Pick!       
Difficult tracking down this one. Many of these Consolidations were rebuilt H8's from its large roster and from railroads absorbed by PRR. Only specifics I could find are - class H-10s, standard or Berkley Stoker, Walschaerts valve gear, Belpaire firebox. C.W. Jenstrom reprinted photo

Alan Fricker General I wonder if this didn't start life as a Lines West engine. They did things differently. 11/3/2015 2:40:14 PM
Robert Beichler General From the footboards she looks like one of the engines assigned as a switcher, a lot of the H series were used as switchers for most of their latter lives. 11/4/2015 7:08:28 PM
