New Haven Railroad K-1-d class 2-6-0 Mogul steam locomotive 343, is switching cars for a local train it is leading in East Hartford, Connecticut, 4-22-1946. You can see the engineer in his cab window. The freight train cars are seen behind the tender. Notice the pole pocket stick hanging below the tender frame. This locomotive was originally a K-1-b class locomotive with slide valves, however; it was later re-built with piston valves and had superheater tubes installed along with some other improvements. If you notice that in the foreground the tracks do not have tie plates, and the rails are spiked directly to the ties.
