| 12th Street. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train in Altoona, Pennsylvania, during August of 1965. Shown here (R to L) are PRR engines #2252, #2286, and another unit whose number is not recorded. #2252 and #2286 are EF-25's built by EMD in 1964 and rated at 2,500 horsepower each. They are pulling a mixed-cargo freight train past the Altoona Passenger Station on their way up the Allegheny Mountains via the Horseshoe Curve to Gallitzin and points West. The time is approximately 2:00 A.M. |
