Portraits 10. Here is a steam locomotive portrait by Ira H. Eigsti that was taken near Warsaw, Indiana, c. 1946. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #6200, the S-2 (6-8-6) "Steam Turbine" built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works during September of 1944, rated at 6,900 horsepower, and retired in January of 1952 after eight years of experimental service. In this context, it's rockin' 'n' rollin' past some Hoosier corn fields with an eastbound passenger train. (#64 of 72)
