| Rainy. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 12 October 1965. Shown here (L to R) are PRR engines #6307 and #6501. #6307 is an AF-27 built by the American Locomotive Company in 1965 and rated at 2,700 horsepower. #6501 is a GF-25A built by General Electric in 1965 and rated at 2,500 horsepower. They are pushing a westbound mixed-cargo freight train and are now climbing the Allegheny Mountains via the Horseshoe Curve. |
