PC 9035, SW-7, 1972 |
| Description: |
Everyday. Here is an original photo that I took of Penn Central Railroad yard operations in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, during March of 1972. Shown here is PC engine #9035, an SW-7 built by EMD in 1950 and rated at 1,200 horsepower; its original PRR number was "9365." Its crew is shifting some cars in the Yard, two of which are wrecked TrailerTrain flatcars that will be delivered to the Berwind-White Railroad Car Shops for disposition. Bald Hill dominates the distance. Photo taken adjacent to the Yard Master's Office, partially visible on the left, at the very eastern end of South Juniata Street. |
