Description:  Mid-Mountain. Here is an original photo that I took just West of Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 20 June 1964. Shown here (R to L) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #7214, #7246, and #7118. All are EFS-17M's built by GM-EMD and rated at 1,750 horsepower each. #7214 was built in November of 1957, #7246 in October of 1959, and #7118 in June of 1957. They're pulling a 107-car merchandise freight down the Allegheny Mountains to Altoona and points East. The cabin car is #477763. Note the emergency cut-out siding in the left foreground; it's built on numerous of pilings driven into the hillside.
