Shown here is Grif Teller's painting entitled "Crossroads Of Commerce." It was published originally in 1950. Depicted in the foreground is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #6444, a J-1 (2-10-4) "Texas" built in Juniata during November of 1943 and retired in February of 1960 after just 17 years of revenue service. In the background, a westbound passenger train is crossing the left-to-right flowing Susquehanna River via the Rockville Bridge. Peter's Mountain dominates the distance. |
