Bessemer & Lake Erie SD9 Hauls Steel at North Bessemer, PA

This Bessemer & Lake Erie SD9 moves steel at North Bessemer, Pennsylvania.  A fresh coat of snow covers the ground as this lead locomotive grinds along with its heavy tonnage.  Bessemer & Lake Erie, one of the US Steel Railroads, serves the purpose of bringing coal into the steel mills of Pittsburgh, to the Great Lake ports and hauling the rolled, finished steel on the first step of its journey.
