PRR 5708, EP-22, 1965         
Slope to Works. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train between SLOPE and WORKS Towers in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 06 June 1965. Shown here (R to L) is PRR engine #5708 and two other units whose numbers are not visible. All were built by EMD. #5708 is an EP-22 built in 1952 and rated at 2,250 horsepower. They are pulling a westbound mail/express train under the 7th Street Bridge.
