Nice catch and a cool composition with the Frisco 2-8-2 No. 4018 on display in the background. Wiki states: "Engine No. 4018 was constructed in October 1919 to a standardized USRA Light Mikado design by the Lima Locomotive Works of Lima, Ohio, for the Pennsylvania Railroad. The engine is a 2-8-2 locomotive of the USRA standard Mikado type." Apparently, Engine No. 4018 was rejected by the PRR and sold to the St Louis – San Francisco Railway (Frisco Railway) in 1923 and spent much of the next three decades carrying transport between Bessemer and Birmingham.
