PRR 9605 |
| Description: |
The Pennsy's Keystone makes a station stop at Elizabeth. This train consisted of specially built cars with low centers of gravity to allow for higher speeds on curves. The date is in question since this scan was made from a duplicate slide. If anyone has more information on this train or knows the disposition of the equipment, please post a comment. |

PRR X29 9704 |
| Description: |
PRR X29 9704 at Jeffersonville, Indiana on April 2, 1985, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This is an example of one of the tens of thousands class X29 boxcars built by the PRR and outside suppliers. This shows the as built (November 1929) flat ends. It has two reporting marks peeking through the paint; PRR 9704 and PC 37753. The PRR number is rather low by PRR standards, suggesting it may have once been an express car. It would have been built with a three panel Creco door, likely acquiring this door during a shopping. It is stenciled: BLT 11-29. It is likely riding on PRR's 2DF4 trucks. |

PRR X29 9704 |
| Description: |
PRR X29 9704 (or, PC 37753) at Jeffersonville, Indiana on April 8, 1985, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in November 1929, this is an example of an X29 as-built with flat ends. It is in sand service (yellow S, and stenciled to the right of the door: ENGINE SAND ONLY). To the left of the reporting marks it is also stenciled: WHEN EMPTY RETURN TO PC AGENT STORES DEPT BEECH GROVE. When in sand service, typically there were two bunkers in the car, one at each end, roof hatches to fill the bunkers with sand, and pneumatic hoses to discharge the sand located behind the doors. At one time there were over 30,000 X29's (all variations). |

PRR 9845, Fairmont, 1960 |
| Description: |
MofW Equipment. Here is an original photo that I took of Pennsylvania Railroad Maintenance-of-Way Equipment in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, during July of 1960. Shown here is Fairmont "Flame Thrower" #9845. This machine has at least two different functions, depending upon the season. In the winter, it is used to melt snow and ice that might foul switches. In the summer, it is used to burn track-side weeds. This photo was taken from the southern end of the old Union Street Bridge. The Samuel Rea Shop is visible in the middle distance, while two more vehicles approach on the Bedford Secondary Track. |

PRR Central Roundhouse, #1 of 2, c. 1895 |
| Description: |
Here is the first of two photos from 4"x5" glass negatives by an unidentified photographer that were taken in Altoona, Pennsylvania, c. 1895. Shown here is an exterior view of the Pennsylvania Railroad's Central Roundhouse, located near 9th Avenue & 12th Street. This could be a later view of this structure ~ i.e., after steam locomotives were no longer being serviced here, the roof stacks have been removed, and the rail entrance has been blocked. As usual, one man is working while eight others are supervising! |
