Remarks & Notes
The Reading Company locomotive alumni association held an organizational meeting at the Altoona backshop on March 31, 1978. Shown from left to right are member numbers 5203, 2711, and 5208. Sadly, all three pictured would succumb within three years, but other members still congregate in Hamburg, Pennsylvania.
