PRR 4248, EP-22, c. 1967
Title:  PRR 4248, EP-22, c. 1967
Description:  New Portage. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide via Al Chione that was taken near Gallitzin, Pennsylvania, c. 1967. The photographer is not identified. Shown here (L to R) is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #4248 and two more units whose road numbers are not recorded. All were built by GM-EMD. #4248 was built as number "5788" in May of 1952, rated at 2,250 horsepower, and renumbered "4248" in preparation for the PRR-NYC merger. In this context, this A-B-A set is about to pass through one of the tunnels under Gallitzin on its way from Altoona to Johnstown and points West. Wave to the Fireman!
