17th Street. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train in Altoona, Pennsylvania, during the Spring of 1960. Shown here are PRR engine #8664 and two other units whose numbers are not legible. All are AS-18AM's built by ALCO in 1958 and rated at 1,800 horsepower each. They are pushing a westbound mixed-cargo freight train under the 17th Street Bridge. Also visible is PRR N-5 Caboose #477770. |
