The former Southern 2-8-0 #385 running as Morris County Central #385. This engine is very similar to the well know Southern 2-8-2 #4501 as they were built just a few years apart by Baldwin in Philadelphia.
This image was scanned from a 3.5 X 5 print dated May ’78 just 5 months before she ran under steam for the last time. The engine is now on display in Whippany NJ.
This link gives a pretty complete history
