Remarks & Notes

The Conestoga: The Philadelphia and Reading Rail Road was chartered April 4, 1833 to build a line between Philadelphia and Reading along the Schuylkill River. This, the second oldest surviving Reading Company engine, is purported to have been built in 1843 by the Locks and Canal Company of Lowell, Massachusetts. Passed from one line to another, it seems obvious that many modifications have been made over her career including the trucks, cab and headlight. An amazing survivor!
