Doghouse. Here is an original photo that I took of Pennsylvania Railroad rolling stock just East of WYE Tower in Duncansville, Pennsylvania, during March of 1966. Shown here is a closer view of the "Doghouse" on the second tender. The structure itself is made of metal and originally there was glass in the windows. The low-lying structures on both sides of the deck could be flipped open so that water could be poured into the tender's reservoir. The round thing on the right was a headlight so that the locomotive's crew could see in the dark while running backwards. Also visible are the signal bridge on the left and the Vipond Mansion on the right across US Route 22. |
