This is a photograph of locomotive #31, a Baldwin, on the Strasburg Rail Road in Strasburg, Pennsylvania. The locomotive was built in Philadelphia in 1908.

This photo was snapped along the “Road to Paradise”, which is Strasburg’s line from the Strasburg station to Paradise along Route 30 in Lancaster County. The filmstock was Kodak Kodacolor Gold 35mm.  I recently scanned it from the original negative. This image has been mildly touched up in Photoshop to correct color shift and aging.
