PRR 4219, EP-20, c. 1966
Title:  PRR 4219, EP-20, c. 1966
Description:  Here is an image of a photo by an unidentified photographer that was taken near South Amboy, New Jersey, c. 1966. Shown here (R to L) is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #4219 and another unit whose road number is not recorded. Both are EP-20's built by GM-EMD and rated at 2,000 horsepower each. #4219 was constructed as number "5859" in February of 1948 and renumbered "4219" in preparation for the PRR-NYC merger. In this context, they've just departed the South Amboy Station with an afternoon passenger train bound for Bay Head Junction. Edward Kaspriske Collection.

PC 4219, E7A, c. 1968
Title:  PC 4219, E7A, c. 1968
Description:  Lorenz. Here is a photo via Bob Lorenz that was taken near the Passenger Station in Crestline, Ohio, c. 1968. Shown here is Penn Central engine #4219, an E7A built by GM-EMD for the Pennsylvania Railroad as number "5859" in February of 1948, rated at 2,000 horsepower, and renumbered "4219" in preparation for the PRR-NYC merger. Looks to me like it's time to change engine crews. (Gift from Brad Mann.)
