PRR 9866, EFP-15, 1966         
Kern. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide of a photo by Fred Kern that was taken near Lewistown, Pennsylvania, in the Spring of 1966. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engine #9866 and an "EF" Class B-unit whose road number is not recorded. Both were built by GM-EMD and rated at 1,500 horsepower each. #9566 was constructed in August of 1952. In this context, this A-B set is pulling a string of "Yellow Ball" 100-ton capacity hoppers back to Western Pennsylvania's coal mines.
