| Roundehouse. Here are two original telephoto views that I took of Pennsylvania Railroad property in East Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 11 September 1965 ~ two photos that were very skillfully joined by Mr. Lance R. Myers of www.altoonaworks.info. Shown here (R to L) are one-half of the original 50-bay East Altoona Roundhouse, the former Power House (sans smoke stacks), a six-car wreck train, as well as an unidentified Diesel pulling a string of hopper cars loaded with coal out of the Eastbound Receiving Yards. Also visible are the 17th and 8th Street Bridges respectively, and the Juniata Erecting & Machine Shop in the distance. |
