PRR 9537, EF-15, 1965 |
| Description: |
Slope to Works. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train between SLOPE and WORKS Towers in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 06 June 1965. Shown here (R to L) is PRR engine #9537 and another unit whose number is not visible. Both were built by EMD. #9537 is an EF-15 built in 1948 and rated at 1,500 horsepower. They are pulling a westbound train consisting of empty hopper cars past WORKS Tower and under the new version of the 4th Street Bridge. Looks like some front-end air conditioning, to me! |

| Description: |
ELDO Action. Here is an original photo that I took of Pennsylvania Railroad trains in the Eldorado section of Altoona, Pennsylvania, during January of 1966. Shown here are two PRR trains: the one on the left is sitting still, but the one on the right is moving. On the left (R to L) are PRR engines #9819 and #9537. Both locomotives were built by EMD and are rated at 1,500 horsepower. #9819 is an EF-15A built in 1951, while #9537 is an EF-15 built in 1948. On the right is PRR engine #9392, an ES-12 switcher built by EMD in 1950 and rated at 1,200 horsepower. It is pulling a local train from Altoona through Eldorado to the Hollidaysburg Yards. It is actually by-passing the line-haul train that is still waiting for permission to proceed. |

ELDO Action. Here is a telephoto view that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train south of Altoona, Pennsylvania, during January of 1966. Shown here (R to L) are PRR engines #9819 and #9537. Both locomotives were built by EMD and are rated at 1,500 horsepower each. #9819 is an EF-15A built in 1951, while #9537 is an EF-15 built in 1948. The train is passing over the two-lane Sixth Avenue Extension near Canaan Station on its way to the Wye Switches, the New Portage Branch Line, the Gallitzin Tunnels, and points West. The Diesels, the truck, and the car were all built by GMC! |
