| Description: |
AHC. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide of a photo by Bill Price that was taken at the Horseshoe Curve near Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 13 August 1951. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #4490, an I-1SA (2-10-0) "Decapod" built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works as an I-1S in June of 1923, rebuilt in Juniata as an I-1SA in March of 1941, and retired in August of 1956 after 33 years of revenue service. In this context, it's descending the Allegheny Mountains and rounding the Curve with a mixed-cargo freight train bound for Altoona and points East. |
