Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide of a photo by R.P. Olmsted that was taken near Union Station in Chicago, Illinois, on 28 September 1958. Shown here (R to L) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #5837 and another E-8 whose number is not recorded. Both were built by GM-EMD and rated at 2,250 horsepower each. #5837 was built in February of 1951. In this context, they're departing the Station with a passenger train bound for Pittsburgh and points East. ("Tchowee"; #24 of 29) |
