PRR 9614, AF-16, 1952 |
| Description: |
Here is an original photo by an unidentified photographer that was taken near Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in November of 1952. Shown here (L to R) is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #9614 and two more units whose road numbers are not recorded. All were built by the American Locomotive Company. #9614 is an AF-16 constructed in May of 1951, rated at 1,600 horsepower, and retired in July of 1966 after just 15 years of revenue service. The presence of an air horn in the foreground suggests that this photo was taken from an interlocking tower. Photo via Bob Hanson. ("Garr254" A; #3 of 6) |
