PRR 9470, FF-20, 1956         
Mann. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide via Al Chione that was taken near Marysville, Pennsylvania, in December of 1956. The photographer is not identified. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #9470 and another unit whose number is not recorded. Both are FF-20's built by Fairbanks-Morse and rated at 2,000 horsepower each. #9470 was constructed in February of 1948 and retired in September of 1962 after just 14 years of revenue service. In this context, this A-A set is heading West to Altoona along side of the East-flowing Susquehanna River in the background. (Gift from Brad Mann.)
