| 24th Street. Here is an original telephoto view that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train in Altoona, Pennsylvania, during November of 1965. Shown here are PRR engines #2289 and two other units whose numbers are not recorded. All were built by EMD. #2289 is an EF-25 built in 1964 and rated at 2,500 horsepower. They have just come down the Allegheny Mountains via the Horseshoe Curve with a merchandise freight train, and will soon pass through Altoona on their way to Enola and points East. Photo taken just West of the 24th Street Bridge. |
