PRR 5712, EP-22, 1960
Title:  PRR 5712, EP-22, 1960
Description:  Mann. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide via Al Chione that was taken in Kalamazoo, Michigan, in October of 1960. The photographer is not identified. Shown here (R to L) is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #5712 and another unit whose road number is not recorded. Both were built by GM-EMD. #5712 is an EP-22 constructed in October of 1952 and rated at 2,250 horsepower. Looks to me like the Engineman is thinking some really deep thoughts! ("PrrFan18n")
