Here are two photos taken by Mr. Gary Gadziala. They were published originally in the May 1965 issue of "Trains" magazine, page 11. Lower Photo Caption: "Even older Pennsy shark-nose 1500 h.p. freight units await the scrapper minus road name and roof-top induction communication antennas." Prominent at the left is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #9568, a BF-15 built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in February of 1949, rated at 1,500 horsepower, and retired in December of 1963 after just 14 years of revenue service.
