PRR 8554, ES-15M, 1963
Title:  PRR 8554, ES-15M, 1963
Description:  24th Street. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 11 October 1963. Shown here (L to R) are PRR engines #8554 and #8563. Both are ES-15M's built by EMD in 1953 and rated at 1,500 horsepower each. They are about to pass under the 24th Street Bridge with a 64-car coal train on their way to Altoona's Eastbound Receiving Yard.
