Title:
PRR 6302, AF-27, 1965
Description:
Slope to Works. Here is an original photo that I took in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 6 June 1965. Shown here (L to R) is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #6302 and two more units whose road numbers are not recorded. All are AF-27's built by the American Locomotive Company and rated at 2,700 horsepower each. #6302 was constructed in March of 1965. They're in the middle of an ore train, helping to move it up the Allegheny Mountains. Note that the eastbound coal train pulled by engine #9530 remains stopped at the far right, while the coal train pulled by engine #7059 has since proceeded into Altoona's Eastbound Receiving Yard. (#20 of 44)

PRR 2357, EF-25, 1965
Description:
Brickyard. Here is an original photo that I took at the Brickyard Crossing in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 18 July 1965. At the right (R to L) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #6307 and #6302. Both are AF-27's built by the American Locomotive Company in March of 1965 and rated at 2,700 horsepower each. They're serving as tail end pushers for a 68-car mixed-cargo freight train on its way up the Allegheny Mountains to Gallitzin, where the pushers will be uncoupled and returned to East Altoona for further assignment. At the left (R to L) are PRR engines #2357, #2535, #7112, and #7033. #2357 is an EF-25 built by GM-EMD in March of 1965 and rated at 2,500 horsepower. They're pulling ~ or, rather, braking ~ an 83-car mixed-cargo freight train down the Allegheny Mountains to Altoona and points East. The cabin car is PRR #477031. That's the Brickyard Crossing in the foreground.
