EL 3319 - 2 of 2
Title:  EL 3319 - 2 of 2
Description:  The EL led freight has stopped directly across from the tower. The old Goodman St. overpass is far left. The PC led local has "normal" power for that era - an RS32, a pair of GP9Bs, what appears to be a 7600 series RS11, and a Dewitt geep. Everything in this picture has since been scrapped, including the bridge!

"Trains" Magazine, April 1968

Partial Caption: "On Merger Day plus 10, a westbound Penn Central freight ascends Horse Shoe Curve behind a locomotive team consisting of freshly repainted EMD SD-40 6056 and unrelettered ex-PRR Geep calves.

All were built by GM-EMD for the Pennsylvania Railroad. #6056 is an SD40 built in February of 1966 and rated at 3,000 horsepower. #3816 and #3835 are both GP9 B-units rated at 1,750 horsepower each; #3816 was built in November of 1957, while #3835 was constructed in October of 1959.

PC 1775 and others in 1972 - shot 1 of 3
Title:  PC 1775 and others in 1972 - shot 1 of 3
Description:  This shot is from February 1972 in the PC days. I'm standing a few hundred feet south of Ridge Rd. on the east side of the NYC, pointing the camera north. What looks to be structure on the extreme right is actually the billboard close to the Ridge, so that should give you an idea of the location and distance. B&O 6541 and 5928 are waiting patiently on the B&O main for the Kodak security guard to arrive and open up the gate. The 1st Belt job is returning from Charlotte with F's 1775, 1784 and ? running elephant style and GP9B 3827 tucked in the rear. RS-1's were the norm in the '60s, followed briefly by RS2/3's. Before the second generation Alcos (RS-32 and similar) arrived, PC got their monies' worth out of the last of the first generation EMDs by putting them in local service. F7A-GP9B-F7A lash-ups were common on Buffalo, Rochester and Syracuse local jobs.
