PRR GG1 4874 - Pennsylvania RR
Title:  PRR GG1 4874 - Pennsylvania RR
Description:  Working the gritty, smoggy yard in this unknown location is GG1 #4874, built in 1938 by the Altoona shops. Note the engineer leaning out his window for a better view down the tracks. The date is a "guess-timation" as nothing was on the back but a Bruce Saylor photo credit. Not preserved - scrapped.
