PRR 7922, ES-12, 1960
Description:
MofW Equipment. Here is an original photo that I took of Pennsylvania Railroad Maintenance-of-Way Equipment in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, during July of 1960. Shown here is PRR engine #7922, an ES-12 switcher built by EMD in 1957 and rated at 1,200 horsepower. It is pulling the daily "Bedford Local" to Altoona ~ but it's way behind schedule because it's been following the "weed burner" and the "water sprayer" since before time began! This photo was taken from the southern end of the old Union Street Bridge. Also note the strings of gondola and hopper cars that are marshalled for reconditioning at the PRR's Samuel Rea Shop.

PRR, WYE Tower, 1960
Description:
WYE Tower. Here is an original photo that I took of Pennsylvania Railroad property at the Wye Switches in Duncansville, Pennsylvania, on 28 July 1960. Shown here is the PRR's WYE Tower. The men who worked here controlled rail traffic on several lines: Hollidaysburg to Altoona, Hollidaysburg to Bedford, Hollidaysburg to Petersburg, plus Hollidaysburg to Gallitzin via the New Portage Branch Line. Approaching from Altoona is PRR engine #7923, an ES-12 built by EMD in November of 1957 and rated at 1,200 horsepower. With no cars in tow, it's on its way from the Altoona Yards to the Hollidaysburg Yards. Also visible is the railhead facing West, toward Duncansville and the Allegheny Mountains in the hazy distance. From 1834 until 1854, this was the right-of-way for the Allegheny Portage Railroad. And from 1850 until 1854, this location was known as "New Portage Junction" since it was the eastern junction of the New Portage Railroad and the Pennsylvania Railroad (coming from Altoona to the right).
