Pennsylvania Railroad 4877, Electric locomotive at Boonton, United States.
Pennsylvania Railroad 4877 stands at 80 feet in length, weighs 237 tons, and maintains its original Brunswick Green paint with gold pinstripes.
Built in January 1939 at Altoona Works, the locomotive served with Pennsylvania Railroad until 1968, then operated under Penn Central until 1976.
The locomotive appears in a documentary titled 'Ol' Big Red', featuring engineer Cliff Underwood and highlighting the final operations of New Jersey Transit's fleet.
The United Railroad Historical Society of New Jersey displays this locomotive during open house events at the Boonton Yard location.
Pennsylvania Railroad 4877 received a complete restoration between 2011 and 2013, returning to its original 1930s five-stripe paint configuration.
