Description:  Volkmer. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide of a photo by William D. Volkmer that was taken near Pinecroft, Pennsylvania, on 16 April 1959. Shown here (R to L) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #9832, #9854-B, and #9832-B. All were built by GM-EMD and rated at 1,500 horsepower each. #9832 and #9832-B were built in April of 1952, while #9854-B was constructed in June of the same year.

Bringing-up the rear are "pushers" #8667, #8666, and #8669. Visible on the left are a telephone box and a venerable black water tower, the last sign of the "Age of Steam" in this part of town.

Former PC Prime Mover Car #73600
Title:  Former PC Prime Mover Car #73600
Description:  Unusual car built from an old F7B unit whose purpose was to carry prime movers during rebuilds in the Penn Central era. Technically, this is now a Conrail item since the date is April, 1980. I cannot find it listed on a Conrail roster however. This is not to be confused with Conrail's Q1 prime mover test car, formerly CR 6097, nee-EL 3632, which wore the EL's bicentennial paint.
