Remarks & Notes 
When PRR returned these engines to the Reading in '57 they were much worse for the wear thanks to poor coal and virtually no maintenence during their stint on the Standard Railroad of the World. Most of the nine Reading T1s PRR leased in 1956 and stationed on the Susquehanna Div. were at the top of the list for scrapping in '57, only 2128 lasted until 1960. Thanks to J.M. Frybourg for P/S expertise.
