The Simms collection has a large number of pictures of the Piedmont & Northern, about which I know little and will have to learn. We'll start with some of their many large electric locomotives, since the line had a substantial freight business. Most of these prints have little or no information on the back. Numbers in parentheses have been added for convenience.
