Great Western #60 - Photo request!
Author: Mitch

A search on the Internet yields very few photos specifically of #60.

Does any one have some images or links they can provide?

For your enjoyment, here are some pics of Great Western engines, including
still surviving - and all serviceable if not already running:

(GW #75 is at Heber, GW #90 is at Strasburg and GW #60 is at the Black River and Western in New Jersey - are there other survivors? - edit, anyone know the story of GW #53?)

GW #60 [www.steamlocomotive.info]
GW #90 [www.steamlocomotive.info]
GW #75 [www.steamlocomotive.info]

GW #51 [bobsobol.smugmug.com]

A superb collection of GW images:

An interesting history by Ken Jessen:

Back to #60 - pics and /or links pre-Black River and Western much appreciated!
Specifically with the diamond on the cab (with either "60" or "GW") and what appears to be "Great Western Railway" on the tender vs simply "Great Western".

I believe there is a book with lots of great images: "Sugar Tramp", on order - but maybe someone has a photo they can share now?

Thanks!
