Classic Pose
Title:  Classic Pose
Description:  In honor of their 50th anniversary of operation on the former PRR Flemington branch, some locomotives on the Black River & Western have been given repaints. 2-8-0 60 stands in Ringoes yard with former LV 112, restored as a replica BR&W 400. Such scenes were commonplace here many years ago when 60 and the original SW1 400 operated side by side in passenger and freight service. The first SW1 400 left the railroad in 1973.
