Locomotives: Washington Terminal Company RS1

Reference

Number 57 was one of three RS1s under the BR&W flag, and came to the BR&W by way of the New Hope and Ivyland. The other RS1s were Minneapolis & St Louis 58 (also numbered 211) and Minneapolis & St Louis 59 (also numbered 204). 57 was sold in 1995 and is currently stored on East Penn Railroad, Quakertown, PA; the other two were scrapped in 1991. Note how 57's scheme changed subtly over the years.
