PC 6188, SD-45, 1973 |
| Description: |
Hazy. Here is an original photo that I took of Penn Central Railroad trains in Altoona, Pennsylvania, during July of 1973. Shown here (F to R) are PC engine #6188 and another unit whose number is not recorded. #6188 is an SD-45 built by EMD in 1967 and rated at 3,600 horsepower; its original PRR number was the same. They are returning to East Altoona after helping/pushing a train up the Allegheny Mountains via the Horseshoe Curve to Gallitzin, where they uncoupled and returned down the Mountains to make yet another helper/pusher run. Visible on the right is a PC freight train that has either stopped or stalled on its way up the Mountains. Photo taken from the 24th Street Bridge. |
