Title:
PRR "Largest Railroad Shops," Page 14, 1978
Description:
Here is page three of a four-page article entitled "The World's Largest Railroad Shops." It was published originally in the April 1978 issue of "Rails Northeast" magazine, page 14. Partial Caption: "This is Pennsy's very first set of EMD F-3's (9500-A, 9500-B, 9501-B, 9501-A) backing to its train where it will begin its trip west." Shown here (R to L) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #9501, #9501-B, #9500-B, and #9500. All are EF-15's built by GM-EMD in July of 1947 and rated at 1,500 horsepower each. Photo taken from the 4th Street Footbridge around 1947 by F.S. Gamber. Also notable is a list of "the four separate and distinct units and sub-units" of the PRR's Altoona Works.
