Title:
PRR Juniata E&M Shop Yard, 1965
Description:
Altoona Action. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide via Al Chione that was taken at the Pennsylvania Railroad's Erecting & Machine Shop storage yard in Altoona, Pennsylvania, in March of 1965. The photographer is not identified. Prominent here (R to L) are PRR engines #9729 and #9721. Both are BF-16's built by Baldwin-Lima-Hamilton, rated at 1,600 horsepower each, and retired in July of 1966. #9729 was constructed in February of 1951, while #9721 was built in March of the same year. !In this context, they're being "cannibalized" for parts. Visible in the background is a wide variety of contemporary PRR diesel-electric locomotives. ("PrrFan18n")
