Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) 2302 - EMD GP35

Horseshoe Curve-1966. Here is an original photo that I took at the Horseshoe Curve near Altoona, Pennsylvania, in May of 1966. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #2302, #2501, and two more units whose road numbers are not recorded. #2302 is an EF-22 built by GM-EMD in November of 1964 and rated at 2,250 horsepower. #2501 is a GF-25 built by General Electric in August of 1962 and rated at 2,250 horsepower. In this context, they're passing under four-track Signal Bridge 2416/7 with a merchandise freight train on their way up the Allegheny Mountains to Gallitzin and points West. (#4 of 39)
