PRR 9557, EF-15, 1963
Title:  PRR 9557, EF-15, 1963
Description:  24th Street. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 11 October 1963. Shown here (R to L) are PRR engines #9557, ##9550-B, and #9788. All were built by EMD and rated at 1,500 horsepower each. #9557 is an EF-15 built in 1948. #9550-B is an EH-15 built in 1948. #9778 is an EF-15A built in 1951. They are about to pass under the 24th Street Bridge with 154 empty hopper cars on their way up the Allegheny Mountains via the Horseshoe Curve to Gallitzin and points West.
