PRR 9791, EF-15A, 1951
Title:  PRR 9791, EF-15A, 1951
Description:  Altoona Action. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide via Al Chione that was taken in East Altoona, Pennsylvania, in June of 1951. The photographer is not identified. Shown here (R to L) are Pennsylvania Railroad engine #9791 and two more "EF" Class units whose numbers are not recorded. All were built by GM-EMD and rated at 1,500 horsepower each. #9797 was constructed in February of 1951. In this context, this A-B-A set is pulling a manifest freight train past ANTIS Tower (not shown) and will soon pause at WORKS Tower (4th Street, Altoona) for a crew change. Partially visible at the right are the tenders of stored-but-serviceable steam locomotives. ("PrrFan18n")
