Caption: Old Sydney Collieries 2-6-0 17 is shown shuffling coal cars at one of their mines in the Sydney Mines area in August 1961. It was originally built by Alco of Schenectady NY in 1903 as Nova Scotia Steel & Coal 2-6-4T 10 (later rebuilt as a 2-6-0). It became Old Sydney Collieries 17, working out of Sydney Mines NS, and worked for two other coal operations before ending up on static display at Glace Bay NS. Unfortunately, research indicates it's since been scrapped.
