PM #1225 on the return leg of a two day trip from Owosso, MI to just beyond Cadillac, MI and return. Seen here just West of Cadillac on former Ann Arbor rails. Rods down, too!
The Van Swearingen Brothers standarized freight power for their railroads with nearly identical 2-8-4 Berkshires. Two of these engines are still in excursion service.
