​More New K2's
Author: MacBeau

John S. Powell framed 3348 at Narberth not long after emerging from Juniata in 1911. It will be rebuilt into a K2s by June 1914, and will survive until 1935. The LOC default date assigned to this image is negated by the builder's date, but the crisp nature of the negative suggests sometime after 1912. Powell also photographed 3354, a 1911 K2. According to Staufer's Pennsy Power, Juniata built 153 examples of the K2 between 1910-1911.

That knife edge ballast line is impressive too.
