PRR 9394, ES-12, 1960 |
| Description: |
Everyday. Here is an original photo that I took of Pennsylvania Railroad locomotives in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, on 2 August 1960. Shown here (L to R) are PRR engines #9394 and #9172. Both were built by EMD. #9394 is an ES-12 built in 1950 and rated at 1,200 horsepower. #9172 is an ES-10 built in 1948 and rated at 1,000 horsepower. Both of these locomotives are just idiling-away in the summer sun. Visible in the background are the old wooden water tower (the last vestage of the Steam Age in Hollidaysburg) and the western end of the PRR's Samuel Rea Shop. Queen Anne's lace rules the foreground! This photo was taken near the Yard Master's Office, at the very eastern end of South Juniata Street. |

PRR 9468, FF-20, 1960 |
| Description: |
Road Power. Here is an original photo that I took of Pennsylvania Railroad road locomotives in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, on 22 August 1960. Shown here (R to L) are PRR engines #9468 and #9469. Both are FF-20's built by Fairbanks-Morse in 1948 and rated at 2,000 horsepower each. This photo reveals just how the process worked. The locomotives and one caboose would have been driven forward from East Altoona to the Wye Switches, turned about, and then run backwards from there to the Hollidaysburg Yards. This crew has just uncoupled from N-5 caboose #477020, which will be pulled to the far end of the Yard and coupled to the out-bound train by engine #9394 ~ an ES-12 switcher built by EMD in 1950. After the caboose is out of the way, this crew will back their FF-20 locomotives a bit further into the Yard and couple onto the train they'll pull out of Hollidaysburg up the New Portage Branch Line to Gallitzin and points West. This photo was taken just west of the intersection of Jones and South Juniata Streets. Visible in the distance is the PRR's Samuel Rea Shop. |
