PRR 5803, EP-22, 1965         
12th Street. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train in Altoona, Pennsylvania, during August of 1965. Shown here (L to R) are PRR engines #5803 and two other units whose numbers are not recorded. All were built by EMD. #5803 is an EP-22 built in 1952 and rated at 2,500 horsepower. They are pulling a New York City-bound passenger train into the Altoona Station, after having come down the Allegheny Mountains via the Horseshoe Curve from Pittsburgh. The time is approximately 2:22 A.M.
