Here is page 62 of a 96-page monograph entitled "Power To Burn: Smoke, Steam, & Cinders" that was edited by James M. Shafer and published during 1976. Photo Caption: "Pennsylvania Railroad employees begin salvaging engines which were buried in the river sand during the Johnstown Flood." The Flood occurred on Friday, 31 May 1889. Both of these locomotives appear to be "H" Class (2-8-0) "Consolidations." |

"Power To Burn," Page 63, 1976 |
| Description: |
Here is page 63 of a 96-page monograph entitled "Power To Burn: Smoke, Steam, & Cinders" that was edited by James M. Shafer and published during 1976. Photo Caption: "The viaduct trestle, 90 feet high and 369 feet long, was built in five days after the Johnstown Flood. The railroad sustained a terrific loss because of the natural disaster." This was not entirely a "natural" diaster since human neglect contributed to it. The earthen Conemaugh River Dam that gave way during heavy rains on Friday, 31 May 1889, was built during the 1830's in support of the Allegheny Portage Railroad (APR). When the APR was sold to the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) in 1859, the latter became the new owner of the Dam. The PRR's neglect of the Dam over the next 30 years contributed directly to the widespread destruction and loss of life. |

CN 4-6-4 #5704 |
| Description: |
A once handsome looking 4-6-4 Hudson was caught by photographer H.L. Goldsmith sitting in the storage/scrap line. The loco, built by the Montreal Locomotive Works in October of 1930 for the Canadian National, once served as express passenger power between cities like Toronto to Montreal and Chicago. Sadly when diesel power took over, this loco was scrapped in June of 1961. Specs - serial #68541, K-5-a class, 80" drivers, impressive 275 psi boiler pressure, 23x28" cylinders, engine weight of 356,400 lb, tractive effort of 43,279 lb. |

| Description: |
Built by the Canadian Locomotive Company in October of 1924, this 4-8-2 Mountain type steam locomotive loco was used for express passenger service between major cities like Toronto and Montreal as well as Chicago. The powerful and fast loco lasted until the scrapper's torch ended its career in August of 1959, barely a year after this photo was taken as it sat with steam up in the Stratford, Ontario, yard. Specs - serial #1767, class U-1-b, 73" drivers, 210 psi boiler pressure, 26x30" cylinders, engine weight of 354,300 lb, tractive effort of 49,589 lb. H.L. Goldsmith photo |

Sad to think that barely a month after this photo way taken by H.L Goldsmith on his visit to the Statford yard that this fine loco was sent to the scrapper's torch.

Specs - serial #1769, class U-1-b, 73" drivers, 210 psi boiler pressure, 26x30" cylinders, engine weight of 354,300 lb, tractive effort of 49,589 lb. |
