| Mid-Mountain. Here is an original telephoto view that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train West of Altoona, Pennsylvania, during mid-June of 1966. Shown here (L to R) are PRR engine #7140 and another unit whose number was not recorded. Both were built by EMD. #7140 is an EFS-17M built in 1957 and rated at 1,750 horsepower. They are pulling a westbound train of empty hopper cars up the Allegheny Mountains to Gallitzin and points West. |
