Baby Grande D&RGW K-36

Nice view of one of the 10 BABY GRANDE Locomotives. Awesome rear 3/4 view of 480 working the dismantling train on the Valley Line. Tender lights were relatively new and check out the small K-37 style light the 480 had as it's first tender light, would later be replaced by a large pyle headlight. The term Baby Grande was what the crews named the K-36 class locomotives shortly after they arrived on the D&RGW.
