Basking in the morning Sun against a backdrop of the mountains of Scranton.
Reading Company Technical and Historical Society's #902 are seen here sitting back to back with the Philadelphia Chapter of the NRHS's #903 at Steamtown in 2016. No's 902 and 903 were among of the first six FP7s ordered by the railroad in March 1950 to replace passenger steam locomotives. In January 2010, the 902 and 903 were loaned to Steamtown National Historic Site for a year to maintain the locomotives in exchange for excursion rights. Both units are still at the park as of 2021, but are out of service and on display. I believe they only operated for 1 year.
