PRR 7119, EFS-17M, 1962
Title:  PRR 7119, EFS-17M, 1962
Description:  12th Street. Here is an original (fuzzy) photo that I took of Pennsylvania Railroad trains in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 24 September 1962. Shown here are PRR engines #7119, #7193, and #7174. All are EFS-17M's built by EMD in 1957 and rated at 1,750 horsepower each. They are pulling a mixed-cargo freight train under the 12th Street Bridge, on their way up the Allegheny Mountains via the Horseshoe Curve to Gallitzin and points West. Partially visible in the background are some of the PRR's 12th Street Car Shop buildings.
