PRR 2227, EF-22, 1965
Title:  PRR 2227, EF-22, 1965
Description:  Winter. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 03 January 1965. Shown here (L to R) are PRR engines #2227 and #7149. Both were built by EMD. #2227 is an EF-22 built in 1963 and rated at 2,250 horsepower. #7149 is an EFS-17M built in 1957 and rated at 1,750 horsepower. They are passing under the 7th Street Bridge with a 57-car westbound mixed-cargo freight train and N-5C caboose #477970. Bringing-up the rear are two ALCo "pushers," #8607 and #8609.
