Hazy. Here is an original telephoto view that I took of Penn Central Railroad trains in Altoona, Pennsylvania, during July of 1973. Shown here (R to L) are PC engine #2638 and another unit whose number is not recorded. #2638 is a U-25B built by General Electric in 1965 and rated at 2,500 horsepower; its original PRR number was "2538." They are pulling a merchandise freight train down the Allegheny Mountains via the Horseshoe Curve through Altoona to Enola and points East. The famous Brick Plant is just up around the curve, to the left. Photo taken just West of the 24th Street Bridge. |

Not much difference |
Description: |
At this point in Conrails history, there was still a lot of equipment in predecessor paint schemes, and it was not uncommon to see solid sets of un repainted power, though most non PC units had at least been renumbered if not patch painted. Since the PC people largely ran the show, their numbering plan held sway. As such, most PC power did not need to be renumbered, so you were more likely to see untouched PC power than anything else. An example is here at Poughkeepsie, where we have not only this U25B, but a transfer caboose still in PC garb. There's also something in NYC lettering in the yard, though I can't see enough of it to identify. All this is in the shadow of the former New Haven Poughkeepsie Bridge, out of service since a fire in May 1974, and now a pedestrian walkway over the river. |
