PRR 9553, EF-15A, 1962
Title:  PRR 9553, EF-15A, 1962
Description:  MDiv. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide of a photo by John Dziobko, Jr., that was taken near Duncannon, Pennsylvania, on 9 June 1962. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #9553 and three more "EF" Class units whose numbers are not recorded. All were built by GM-EMD and rated at 1,500 horsepower each. #9553 was built as an EH-15 in December of 1948, regeared and reclassified as an EF-15A, and retired in December of 1964 after just 16 years of revenue service. This A-B-B-A set is powering an eastbound mixed-cargo freight train. ("Stoneborobranch"; #55 of 56)
