PRR 9847, EFP-15, 1964
Title:  PRR 9847, EFP-15, 1964
Description:  17th Street. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 25 April 1964. Shown here (R to L) are PRR engines #9847, #7195-B, #9675, and #9855. All were built by EMD. #9847 is an EFP-15 built in 1952 and rated at 1,500 horsepower. #7195-B is an EFS-17M built in 1957 and rated at 1,750 horsepower. #9675 is an EF-15A built in 1949 and rated at 1,500 horsepower. #9855 is an EFP-15 built in 1952 and rated at 1,500 horsepower. They are pulling 25 gondola cars loaded with pipes destined for the Alaska Pipeline.

PRR 9855, EFP-15, c. 1966
Title:  PRR 9855, EFP-15, c. 1966
Description:  Chione. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide via Al Chione that was taken near Cove, Pennsylvania, c. 1966. The photographer is not identified. Shown here (L to R) is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #9855 and an unidentified FF-16 built by Fairbanks-Morse. #9855 is an EFP-15 constructed by GM-EMD in June of 1952 and rated at 1,500 horsepower. In this context, they're pulling a rather short mixed-cargo freight train out of Enola to Altoona and points West. Note the "focal orange" cabin car.
