| Altoona Action. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad locomotive in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 26 June 1965. Shown here is PRR engine #8664, an AS-18AM built by the American Locomotive Company in February of 1958 and rated at 1,800 horsepower. It is poised at the top of the hump for the PRR's Eastbound Classification Yards. The two structures sit adjacent to the car-weighing scales that are located there. |
