The oldest shifter in the yard, Lucky 13 was one of the first ones built when it arrived on the Pennsy in 1916. The photographer got a couple of good photos of the big 0-4-0 moving a H21a hopper into position at the coal tower. To the right, a N2sa is pulling out after topping off its tender with Pennsylvania Anthracite.
As the new decade arrives nearly all A5 engines were still active and working the complex street and tight industrial trackage of the Pennsy. Because of the engines usefulness most of the 47 built lasted to the end of Pennsy steam in 1956/7.
The A5 is K-Line with ERR cruise, the H21a is Atlas, and the N2sa tender is 3rd rail.
