Description:  Here is page four of an 11-page article by Bert Pennypacker entitled "All About America's Largest Locomotive Fleet." It was published originally in the April 1964 issue of "Trains" magazine, page 41. Photo Caption: "Sometimes diesel power is not exchanged for electric at Enola Yard (near Harrisburg) but goes right on through under catenary to destination. F-7's roll through Elizabeth, N.J., en route to Waverly Yard, Newark, with an Altoona coal drag." Photo by Don Wood. Shown here (L to R) is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #9651 and two more units whose road numbers are not recorded. All were built by GM-EMD and rated at 1,500 horsepower each. #9651 is an EF-15A constructed in February of 1950 and retired in July of 1966 after just 16 years of revenue service.
