PRR 2299, EF-25, 1965         
Slope to Works. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train between SLOPE and WORKS Towers in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 06 June 1965. Shown here (R to L) is PRR engine #2299 and two B-units whose numbers are not visible. All were built by EMD. #2299 is an EF-25 built in 1964 and rated at 2,500 horsepower. They are pulling an eastbound coal train and are about to pass under the 24th Street Bridge.

Peter Hultgren General Looks like a lot of brake shoe smoke going down grade! I have been enjoying this album and the several others you have posted. Thank you for sharing all of them. 7/4/2016 10:49:03 AM
