JCP&L / PRR can you help ??

Hello folks. I'm trying to find photo's of the 45 ton side rod GE locomotive that operated in the JCP&L plant along the Delaware River in Holland Twp NJ. The unit operated almost daily from 1942 to 1978. The plant was the biggest customer on the Bel Del for decades. The locomotive has been restored by a group of volunteers and were trying to put a documentary together about the loco and restoration but we have only been able to locate 1 picture of the loco in service. Does anyone have, know where or know who may have some additional pictures of the unit in operation in operation?? THANK YOU in advance.

The one photo we have.

Don, maybe First Energy has photos in a historical archive. Here is the phone number for External Affairs. https://www.firstenergycorp.com/communi ... ts.html#NJ

Tried already, they had other locomotives, not this one..

What was the traffic? Inbound coal back then? Jim S

Coal, up to 6 days a week until 1971, then #2 oil on and off until the mid 80's. Plant is a stand by plant now a days. They employed about 200-220 for decades. Now employ less then 20 people for over a decade. Plant manager told me they break even if they run just 2 days a year. I ""think''' they run between 15 and 25 now a days
