Here is an image of a photo by an unidentified photographer that was taken near South Amboy, New Jersey, c. 1966. Shown here (R to L) is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #4219 and another unit whose road number is not recorded. Both are EP-20's built by GM-EMD and rated at 2,000 horsepower each. #4219 was constructed as number "5859" in February of 1948 and renumbered "4219" in preparation for the PRR-NYC merger. In this context, they've just departed the South Amboy Station with an afternoon passenger train bound for Bay Head Junction. Edward Kaspriske Collection. |
