MEC 163 |
Description: |
I expect this Alco 0-6-0 spent a lot of time switching in its 37 years with the MEC. A Class K it was built in November 1910 and scrapped in April 1947. Date, photographer and location are not noted on this old print although I suspect the location is Portland...(?) /DL |

The note in the back of one print says...: Wreck at Rumford yard 3-13-39 engine #380 ran into rear of stalled freight train. Small plow on the head end of passenger train. Heavyest snow storm of the winter of 38-39, nearly 2 feet. No notation as to the photographer. /DL |
