Title:
PRR 4857, GG-1, 1962
Description:
Electrified. Here is an original photo that I took in North Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on 18 June 1962. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #4857, #4819, #4818, and three more units whose road numbers are not recorded. #4857, #4819, and #4818 are GG-1 (2-C-C-2) electrics built in Juniata and rated at 4,620 horsepower each. #4857 was built in June of 1935, while #4819 and #4818 were built in May of 1935. They're deadheading through the Passenger Station on their way South to the Wilmington Engine House. Wave to the Fireman!
