PRR 8051, BS-10AS, 1957 |
| Description: |
Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide by an unidentified photographer that was taken in Pemberton, New Jersey on 27 August 1957. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #8051, a BS-10AS built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works as number "5591" in March of 1950, rated at 1,000 HP, and renumbered "8051" in preparation for the PRR-NYC merger. Note the air horn on the roof of P-70 Cab Car #1046, perhaps indicating some sort of push-pull operation from and to Pemberton. ("LouisFols"; #12 of 39) |

PRR 1046, Push-Pull Car, c. 1958 |
| Description: |
Here is a photo of Pennsylvania Railroad passenger coach #1046. Given the presence of the headlight and the horn, this could be a head-end car for push-pull service. The photographer's name, the exact date, and the location are not recorded. ("JpsPcc6992" C; #1 of 2) |

PRR Train #983 |
| Description: |
The engineer of PRR Train #983 (an early rush hour run to Moorestown), waits for the highball at Merchantville depot. The semaphore at the end of the platform warns of open switches at local industries and serves as the distant signal to Pennsauken block station, a provisional block station that would occasionally see service for troop movements to Fort Dix during the early years of the Vietnam conflict. |

PRR #987 in yard and CB-21 on main |
| Description: |
It's Friday night and the equipment from train #987 is put away at Pemberton. Minutes later, the operator at Cooper will gives C&E Extra 7268 North (the CB-21 with GP-9 7268) a K card for a Clear-block to State Street in Pavonia. The Pemberton Branch represented the last manual block passenger operations on the PRR proper (the LIRR and PRSL excepted). |
