PRR 5597, BS-7M, 1960 |
Description: |
Good Day. Here is an original photo that I took of Pennsylvania Railroad trains in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, on 25 July 1960. Shown here are two PRR trains, both of which are moving West toward the Bedford Street Crossing. The train in the foreground has locomotives both front and rear, and is headed up the New Portage Branch Line to Gallitzin and points West. The train in the background is headed (R to L) by PRR engines #5597 and #5595. Both are BS-7M's built by Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1950 and rated at 750 horsepower each; they are pulling the daily "Cumberland Local" to Altoona. This photo was taken at the Juniata River Railroad Bridge, near Bedford Street and the Passenger Station. #10 of 12. |

Sweetland. Here is a photo by David R. Sweetland that was taken in Hyndman, Pennsylvania, in March of 1961. It was published originally in his (2000) book entitled "Pennsylvania Railroad Color Pictorial: Volume One ~ Altoona To New York City," page 57. Partial Caption: "'Ike' and 'Mike,' as they were later called, were pulling cars from the B&O interchange at Hyndman, Pa., in March 1961. The Baltimore & Ohio station in the background was situated along its main tracks." Prominent here (R to L) are PRR engines #5595 and #5597. Both are BS-7M switchers built by the Baldwin Locomotive Works in May of 1950 and rated at 750 horsepower each. In this context, they're on their way back to Altoona ~ via Hollidaysburg ~ with the "Cumberland Local." |
