PRR 9656, EF-15A, 1965         
8th Street. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 14 February 1965. Shown here (R to L) are PRR engines #9656, #9650-B, and #9778. All are EF-15A's built by EMD and rated at 1,500 horsepower each. #9656 and #9650-B were built in 1950, but #9778 was built in 1951. They are about to pass under the 8th Street Bridge into the Westbound Receiving Yard with a 94-car mixed-cargo freight train and N-8 caboose #478169.
