PRR 9454, FF-16, 1964
Title:  PRR 9454, FF-16, 1964
Description:  8th Street. Here is an original photo that I took of Pennsylvania Railroad locomotives in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 12 January 1964. Shown here (R to L) are PRR engines #9454, #9630-B, #9717, #9594, and #8576. #9454 is an FF-16 built by Fairbanks-Morse in 1950 and rated at 1,600 horsepower. #9630-B is an AF-16 built by the American Locomotive Company in 1951 and rated at 1,600 horsepower. #9717 and #9594 are BF-16's built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1951 and rated at 1,600 horsepower each. #8576 is an ES-15M built by EMD in 1953 and rated at 1,500 horsepower. They are about to pass under the 8th Street Bridge in Juniata on their way to the East Altoona Roundhouse for servicing. Visible in the immediate background are at least eight cabin cars and PRR engine #7923, an ES-12 built by EMD in 1957 and rated at 1,200 horsepower.
