PRR 2367, EF-25, 1966 |
Description: |
Horseshoe Curve-1966. Here is an original photo that I took at the Horseshoe Curve near Altoona, Pennsylvania, in May of 1966. Shown here on Track 1 (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #2367, #2404, and another unit whose road number is not recorded. #2367 is an EF-25 built by GM-EMD in April of 1965 and rated at 2,500 horsepower. #2404 is an AF-24 built by the American Locomotive Company in October of 1962 and rated at 2,400 horsepower. They're rounding the Curve with a fully-loaded mineral train on its way down the Allegheny Mountains to the Eastbound Receiving Yard in Altoona. Note the returning pushers on Track 2. (#34 of 39) |
