Roundhouse. Here is an original photo that I took of Pennsylvania Railroad property in East Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 26 June 1965. Shown here (R to L) are the East Altoona Roundhouse (in very shabby condition), the East Altoona Coaling Tipple and Water Tower, the two freight tracks, as well as the Westbound Classification Yards and HOMER Tower. Also visible are many deadlined Diesels that are destined for the scrapper and a westbound 95-car ore train in the distance. Photo taken from the 17th Street Bridge. |
