3 Vulcan Engines & The 2nd Railroader's Day

The B&W acquired three Vulcan locomotives from a glue factory in Gowanda NY. The B&W would keep one, one went to friends across town, and the third to a friend in Pittsburgh. This Vulcan would become B&W number three with a nickname of Norman for its sometime cranky behavior.

Due to flood damage at his Wilkes-Barre railroad George Spohrer’s Herschel was stored at the B&W facilities until sold to an individual in Kane PA.

​October 7th saw the B&W second annual railroader’s day with the Horseshoe, Lake Shore, and Buffalo Chapters of ​the NHRS present.
