PBNE 34 - Philadelphia, Bethlehem & New England |
| Description: |
An unknown photographer caught this SW7 while in its switching duties at an unidentified location. No exact date was given for this photo but definitely before the late 1970's as the paint scheme changed with the addition of an oval logo under the window where the #34 is on this one. Can anyone identify the location and narrow the date? |
