Colorized in Photoshop. ACL used many of it's Pacifics as freight engines although they were probably considered dual service.
This one is at the Uceta Shop roundhouse in Tampa around 1949-1950. It was retired on January 31, 1951.

Excellent job on a tired looking engine. Great photo!

Really nice work. Fooled me at first, think it was Kodachrome.

That is actually relatively young. For many steam engines age 25 is just getting broken in. But then there is an E unit in the background.

Another great effort Jim; wish I could have seen the ACL steam facilities in Tampa.

I lived in Tampa about three years ago. It had a nice passenger station but couldn't find a roundhouse and no turntable. :-(
