PRR 5782-B, BF-16Z, 1963 |
| Description: |
Altoona Action. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide via Al Chione that was taken in the Pennsylvania Railroad's Erecting & Machine Shop storage yard in Altoona, Pennsylvania, in April of 1963. The photographer is not identified. Shown here is PRR engine #5782-B, a BF-16Z built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works as a 2,000 horsepower BP-20 in November of 1948, later regeared and reclassified as a 1,600 horsepower BF-16Z, and retired in September of 1962 after just 14 years of revenue service. In this context, it's being "cannibalized" for parts. ("PrrFan18n") |
