PRR 9453, FF-16, 1965 |
Description: |
Oil Power. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide by an unidentified photographer that was taken in La Grange, Illinois, on 17 April 1965. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #9453 and #9498. Both are FF-16's built by Fairbanks-Morse, rated at 1,600 horsepower each, and retired in April of 1965; #9453 was built in September of 1950 while #9498 was built in November of 1950. Looks to me like they're about to be traded-in for younger (i.e. GM-EMD) models! |
