| 4th Street. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad locomotive in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 23 September 1964. Shown here is PRR engine #8967, a BS-16M built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1951 and rated at 1,600 horsepower. Its crew is attending to a mixed-cargo freight train that has just pulled into the Eastbound Receiving Yard. Visible on the right is Altoona's one-track loading and unloading facility for TrucTrain flatcars. Photo taken from the 4th Street Bridge. |
