C&O 614 J-3a 4-8-4 in transit on the NS Lehigh Valley line

I 'caught' the engine in Hillsborough, New Jersey on the way out to vacation. One email list said it was headed west to storage in Reading. Another list said PRR Engines 3424-3435, the Allentown Local, coupled up to C&O 614 at 5:30 PM. This was less than an hour after these shots were taken. The engine, coal bunker and water tender were set out on the Royceville Running Track's western most end. You can see the yellow insulated joints in the wide angle shot. The main side rods were removed for this trip as it was not under steam. Sorry for the pics quality as I only had my "people picture" digital camera with me. Any corrections or additional information is welcomed and expected!
