Viewing Album: PRR: D.C. Jones ~> Altoona Adventures - Tipple
By:
Thomas C. Ayers
Dates:
1/25/1953 - 1/25/1953
Album Info:
Here are several original photos of Pennsylvania Railroad subjects by Mr. Douglas C. Jones that were taken at and near the East Altoona Coaling Tipple in the Juniata section of Altoona, Pennsylvania, circa 1957. The actual order of succession is not recorded. All of these images come from negatives that I purchased during several eBay auctions conducted by Mr. Jeffrey K. Frangione in May, June, and July of 2021.
