PRR 7059, EFS-17M, c. 1967         
Oil Power. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide by an unidentified photographer that was taken near Perdix, Pennsylvania, c. 1967. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #7059, #7085, and #7096. All are EFS-17M's built by GM-EMD in 1956: #7059 was built in October, while #7085 and #7096 were built in November. They're passing BANKS Tower with a train of empty hoppers bound for Altoona and the coal mines in Western Pennsylvania. Blue Mountain dominates the distance.
