Title:  "Allegheny Portage Railroad," Front Cover, 1997
Description:  Here is the front cover of Charles S. Roberts' 1997 book entitled "Triumph I: Altoona To Pitcairn 1846-1996." Partial Cover Caption: "Bitter winter weather remains another obstacle to any mountain crossing, no less so for PRR on this or any other day. On 10 February 1968, units 6046, 2425, 2503, and 2205 with a westbounder have just topped the grade as they exit Allegheny Tunnel, PRR's first bore at Gallitzin. The summit is precisely at the portal behind the locomotives." Shown here (L to R) are Penn Central engines #6046, #2425, #2503, and #2205. #6046 is an SD-40 built by GM-EMD in 1966 and rated at 3,000 horsepower. #2425 is a C-425 built by the American Locomotive Works in 1965 and rated at 2,500 horsepower. #2503 is a GF-25 built by General Electric in 1962 and rated at 2,500 horsepower. #2205 is an EF-22 built by GM-EMD in 1963 and rated at 2,250 horsepower.
