PRR 9808, EF-15A, 1965 |
| Description: |
Rainy. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 12 October 1965. Shown here (R to L) are PRR engines #9808 and #7050. Both were built by EMD. #9808 is an EF-15A built in 1951 and rated at 1,500 horsepower. #7050 is an EFS-17M built in 1956 and rated at 1,750 horsepower. They are pulling a 110-car westbound train of empty hopper cars under the 12th Street Bridge, through the Altoona Passenger Station, and up the Allegheny Mountains to Gallitzin and points West. The caboose is #477202. |
