Title:
PRR 6038, EF-25A, 1965
Description:
WIL-ALT-65. Here is an original photo that I took while riding in a Pennsylvania Railroad passenger train from Harrisburg to Altoona during August of 1965. Shown here (R to L) are PRR engine #6038 and another unit whose number is not recorded. Both were built by EMD. #6038 is an EF-25A built in 1965 and rated at 2,500 horsepower. They are parked just east of the 4th Street Bridge, and their crew awaits orders to proceed up the Allegheny Mountains via the Horseshoe Curve to Gallitzin and points West with an iron-ore train. Partially visible a couple of tracks over are three ALCo locomotives pushing a westbound freight train out of the Yard.

Title:
PRR 6001, EF-25A, 1965
Description:
Rainy. Here is an original photo that I took in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 12 October 1965. Shown here (R to L) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #6001 and #6038. Both are EF-25A's built in 1965 by GM-EMD and rated at 2,500 horsepower each; #6001 was built in February, while #6038 was built in May. They're serving as tail-end pushers on a 95-car iron-ore train that's entered the Hollidaysburg Branch line to Duncansville. Then they'll follow the New Portage Branch line up the Allegheny Mountains ~ via the Muleshoe Curve ~ to Gallitzin, where they'll be uncoupled and returned to East Altoona for further assignment. The focal-orange-painted N-5C cabin car is #477898. Also visible is the interlocking directly in front of ALTO Tower (not shown at the right) and the headlight beam from an on-coming mineral train pulled by PRR engine #8570. Photo taken from the 17th Street Bridge. (#18 of 21)
