Chione. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide via Al Chione that was taken in Indianapolis, Indiana, on 11 August 1963. The photographer is not identified. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #8446, an AS-16A road switcher built by the American Locomotive Company as an AS-16A in October of 1952, rated at 1,600 horsepower, and later rebuilt as an AS-16AM. All of that black smoke reminds me of the good ol' days of steam! |

8th Street. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 11 April 1965. Shown here (R to L) are PRR engines #8446, #9623, and #9556. #8446 is an AS-16AM built by the American Locomotive Company in October of 1952 and rated at 1,600 horsepower. #9623 is an AF-16 built by the American Locomotive Company in December of 1951 and rated at 1,600 horsepower. #9556 is an EF-15 built by GM-EMD in September of 1948 and rated at 1,500 horsepower. They're passing under the 8th Street Bridge into the Westbound Receiving Yard with an 85-car mixed-cargo freight train and N-8 caboose #478021. Partially visible at the far left is ROSE Tower. |
