Here are pages 15 and 16 of a 43-page article by James J.D. Lynch, Jr., entitled "Overview Of The History And"Development Of The Pennsylvania Railroad's Altoona Shops."

Partial Caption: "This 1984 oil [painting] was inspired by a PRR photograph which captured I1s #4408 being lowered onto the servicing pit at Juniata Shops, typical of daily activity there from WW I through the late 1950's, a 40-year span." Engine #4408 is an I-1SA (2-10-0) "Decapod" built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works as an I-1S during March of 1923, rebuilt in Juniata as an I-1SA in September of 1937, and retired in September of 1958 after 35 years of faithful service.
