PRR 6011, EF-25A, 1965 |
| Description: |
Slope to Works. Here is an original photo that I took in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 6 June 1965. Shown here (F to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #6011 and #6010. Both are EF-25A's built by GM-EMD in March of 1965 and rated at 2,500 horsepower each. They're pulling a westbound ore train that's about to pass under the 12th Street Footbridge on its way up the Allegheny Mountains via the Horseshoe Curve to the tunnels at Gallitzin and the steel mills of Pittsburgh.

Slope to Works. H ere is an original photo that I took in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 6 June 1965. Shown here (F to R) are PRR engines #6011 and #6010. Both are EF-25A's built by GM-EMD in March of 1965 and rated at 2,500 horsepower each. They're pulling a westbound ore train that's passing under the 12th Street Footbridge. This train will surmount the Allegheny Mountains ~ visible in the distance ~ on its way to the steel mills of Pittsburgh. Note the two coal trains at the left, the westbound freight train on the adjoining track, and a single passenger-helper locomotive a bit further over. Elements of the Footbridge occupy the foreground. (#19 of 44) |
