PRR 5863, EP-20, 1960         
Sweetland. Here is duplicate 35mm color slide of a photo by David R. Sweetland that was taken near Gallitzin, Pennsylvania, in October of 1960. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #5863 and two more E-7's whose numbers are not recorded. All were built by GM-EMD and rated at 2,000 horsepower each. #5863 was built in February of 1948. In this context, they're pulling a mail-express train that's about to enter the Gallitzin Tunnel on its way to Pittsburgh and points West.
