PRR 4920, GG-1, 1964 |
Description: |
WIL-ALT-64. Here is an original photo that I took during a trip on Pennsylvania Railroad passenger trains from Wilmington to Altoona on 03 July 1964. Shown here is PRR engine #4920, a GG-1 built in Juniata during July of 1942. It has pulled a 16-car passenger train from New York and Philadelphia into the Harrisburg Passenger Station, and is about to uncouple. Three Diesels (headed by PRR engine #5838) and four more cars will soon couple on, and then the now-20-car passenger train will head west to Altoona, Pittsburgh, and points West. |
