Dates:9/18/1965 - 9/18/1965
Album Info:Here are eight original photos that I took of Pennsylvania Railroad equipment in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, during September of 1965: PRR #4666, a J.G. Brill Gas-Electric Model 660 "Doodlebug" built in June of 1930. It had been retired from active service on the PRR and was awaiting final disposition in the Hollidaysburg Yards. Eventually, it was reconditioned for excursion service ~ including the Arcade & Attica Railroad, the Penn View Mountain Railroad, the New Hope & Ivyland Railroad, as well as the Black River & Western Railroad. As of 02 July 2016, it belongs to the Allentown & Auburn Railroad in Topton, Pennsylvania. Also included are several photos by other photographers of #4666 during its days with the PRR, NH&I, BR&W, and A&A.
