PRR 7154, EFS-17M, 1964
Title:  PRR 7154, EFS-17M, 1964
Description:  Mid-Mountain. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train West of Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 20 June 1964. Shown here (R to L) are PRR engines #7154 and #9657. Both were built by EMD. #7154 is an EFS-17M built in 1957 and rated at 1,750 horsepower. #9657 is an EF-15A built in 1950 and rated at 1,500 horsepower. They are pulling ~ or, rather, braking ~ a 71-car eastbound coal train down the Allegheny Mountains to Altoona and points East.

Both are EF-15A's built by EMD and rated at 1,500 horsepower each; #9657 was built in 1950, but #9766-@ was built in 1951. They are about to pass under the 24th Street Bridge with a 76-car mixed-cargo freight train on their way up the Allegheny Mountains via the Horseshoe Curve to Gallitzin and points West. The N-8 caboose is #478171. Bringing-up the rear are three ALCo "pushers": #8678, #8674, and #8667. The 73-car eastbound TrucTrain on the next track over is headed by engine #2249.
