PRR 9530, EF-15, 1965 |
| Description: |
Slope to Works. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train between SLOPE and WORKS Towers in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 06 June 1965. Shown here (R to L) is PRR engine #9530 and two other units whose numbers are not visible. All were built by EMD. #9530 is an EF-15 built in 1948 and rated at 1,500 horsepower. They are pulling an eastbound coal train and are about to pass under the 17th Street Bridge. Visible at the lower left is the branch line leading to WYE Tower in Duncansville ~ and thence either East to Hollidaysburg (so, too, the line to Petersburg, Pennsylvania, or the line South to Cumberland, Maryland), or West to the New Portage Line (via the Muleshoe Curve) to the tunnels and Gallitzin. |
