| Description: |
Malinowski. Here is duplicate 35mm color slide of a photo by Robert R. Malinoski that was taken at the Sherman Creek Bridge near Duncannon, Pennsylvania, on 18 May 1965. Shown here are four diesel-electric locomotives pulling an eastbound manifest freight train that stretches all the way around this curve in the Susquehanna River and out of sight at the upper right. In the lead (R to L) are engines #2281, #2527, #2234, and another unit whose road number is not recorded. #2281 is an EF-25 built by GM-EMD in June of 1964 and rated at 2,500 horsepower. #2527 is a GF-25 built by General Electric in October of 1962 and rated at 2,500 horsepower. #2234 is an EF-22 built by GM-EMD in April of 1963 and rated at 2,250 horsepower. The slide mount is annotated "Train SW6." This train's cars are visible way over there! ("PrrFan18n") |

| Description: |
Spruce Creek. Here is the fifth of eight successive photos that I took in Spruce Creek, Pennsylvania, on 10 July 1965. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #2539, #2517, #2234, and another unit whose road number is not recorded. #2539 and #2517 are GF-25's built by General Electric and rated at 2,500 horsepower each; the former was built in February of 1965, the latter in October of 1962. #2234 is an EF-22 built by GM-EMD in April of 1963 and rated at 2,250 horsepower. In this context, they're rockin' 'n' rollin' with an eastbound TrucTrain heading for the Enola Yards. Wave to the Fireman! |
