N&W 1206 at the 1939-40 World's Fair.

Tue Aug 20 19:37:40 EDT 2019

Jimmy Lisle mentioned N&W A 1206 being displayed at the New York World's Fair.  It definitely travelled the Shenandoah Division but I suspect dead-in-tow.  Here are snapshots of 1206 at Chambersburg, PA 25 miles north of Hagerstown.  Notice the main rods are not on the engine, and the engine is spit polished for the Fair.  Photo is at the PRR Chambersburg passenger station.  So today 611 will pass this very location on its way to Strasburg.  611 departed Shepherdstown passing siding at 4:45 pm 08/20.
