| ALV. Here is a photo by an unidentified photographer that was taken in the Juniata section of Altoona, Pennsylvania, on or about 7 August 1954. Shown here is Altoona & Logan Valley Electric Railway streetcar #72. It's on its last run between Juniata and Downtown Altoona. In this context, it's just departing the terminus at Chestnut Avenue and 4th Street in Juniata. One of the new buses replacing the venerable trolleys is visible at the right, racing up the hill. The banner proclaims: "Altoona Moves Ahead:" |
