PRR 643 with its smokebox front removed
Title:  PRR 643 with its smokebox front removed
Description:  Awaiting the Pennsylvania annual state boiler inspection. 643 will operate at Williams Grove later in the season. It's one of Pennsylvania's lesser-known operating steam locomotives, but only operates on a few days each year, so if you wish to see 643 operating it's best to call ahead, or inquire via the Williams Grove Railroad's Facebook page.
