Title:
"Pennsy At Northumberland," Page 66, 2004
Description:
Here is page one of a six-page article by William D. Volkmer entitled "The Pennsy At Northumberland: 1964-1968." It was published originally in the January 2004 issue of "Trains" magazine, page 66. Partial Caption: "Pennsy passenger train 570, the daytime Harrisburg-Buffalo run, rolls into Sunbury behind steam-generator equipped RS3 8445 (one of only two RS3s built with a high hood; the other is Western Maryland 192) and E8 4293." Engine #8445 is an AS-16MS built by the American Locomotive Company in December of 1953 and rated at 1,600 horsepower. Engine #4293 is an EP-22 built by GM-EMD as number "5893" in April of 1950, rated at 2,250 horsepower, and renumbered "4293" in preparation for the PRR-NYC merger. Note that the "A" in "PENNSYLVANIA" has been painted over with the new road number.
