ALV. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide of a photo by C.H. Weierman that was taken in Altoona, Pennsylvania, c. 1953. Photo Caption: "Altoona Transit Co., No. 70." Shown here is Altoona & Logan Valley Electric Railway streetcar #70. It's crossing the 17th Street Bridge over the Pennsylvania Railroad's mainline tracks, and has just begun the outbound leg of its roundtrip run from Altoona to Eldorado and back. Partially visible at the right is the inbound track to downtown Altoona. This photo comes from a color slide set entitled "Pennsylvania Trolley Lines" that's produced by Blackhawk Films of Davenport, Iowa (350-216). |
