PRR 9470, FF-20, c. 1961 |
| Description: |
TRB. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide by an unidentified photographer that was taken in Summerdale, Pennsylvania, c. 1961. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engine #9470 and another unit whose road number is not recorded. Both are FF-20's built by Fairbanks-Morse and rated at 2,000 horsepower each. #9470 was constructed in February of 1948 and retired in September of 1962 after just 14 years of revenue service. In this context, this A-B set is about to enter the Enola Yards with an eastbound mixed-cargo freight train. Partially visible in the right distance is the Rockville Bridge as it spans the left-to-right flowing Susquehanna River. |
