Prophet’s Pennsy (2009)

John Prophet, one of the founding members of the Society, passed away September 3, 2002. We are memorializing his efforts in helping to make the Society what it is today by printing two all color books of most of his slide collection. The first book, Prophet’s Pennsy is all about locomotives and equipment. The hardbound book of 146 pages has 95 steam locomotive photographs, 48 diesel, 28 motors, 88 freight cars (including 34 cabins), 34 passenger cars, 29 MUs, and 18 pieces of work equipment (including 6 office and inspection cars). We hope that you enjoy this trip back through time, courtesy of photographer John Prophet. The second book, publication date unknown, will contain John’s right-of-way photo
