PRR 8616, AS-24M, 1966         
Winter Day. Here is an original telephoto view that I took in Altoona, Pennsylvania, in February of 1966. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #8616 and #8614. Both are AS-24M's built by the American Locomotive Company in August of 1956 and rated at 2,400 horsepower each. They're passing the Altoona Passenger Station on their way back to East Altoona after making a helper/pusher run up the Allegheny Mountains to Gallitzin and back. Visible in the background is the PRR's Test Plant building.
