PRR "Army-Navy Game," Front Cover, 1962
Title:  PRR "Army-Navy Game," Front Cover, 1962
Description:  Here is the front cover of a two-page cover article entitled "Army-Navy Game." It was published originally on the January-February 1962 issue of "Pennsy" magazine. Photo Caption: "Usher C.E. Minus uses 'bull horn' to help direct Army-Navy game fans who rode to Philadelphia's Municipal Stadium via PRR. Scene is at Greenwich Yard, where PRR specials brought spectators directly to the stadium area." Partially visible here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #4903, a GG-1 (2-C-C-2) electric built in Juniata in May of 1940, rated at 4,620 horsepower, pulled the Kennedy Funeral Train, and now on exhibit at the Museum of the American Railroad in Dallas, Texas.
