Locomotive #555 is one of the S-160 class G.I. Consolidations. Baldwin Blders No.69854 in August 1943 for U. S No.2626 she came to Alaska in October 1943 and was eventually retired in April of 1954. This view shows her behind a Jordan Spreader, and the best guess is she is Southbound on the main at McKinley Park Station. Great details here for the modelers building the S-160 kits in HO scale.

Jerry W. Ware retired from the Alaska Railroad and is well known as the ARR track welder who's office was known as the Doll Shop. His father, Wayne Ware was an Alaska Railroad engineer who had a modest collection of small 2"X 4" black and white photos. Jerry has offered these for inclusion in the roster section with credit to the Jerry W. Ware Collection. While these prints are small they are first generation and all provide excellent new views and details when enlarged on your computer screen.
