Title:  PRR 9474, FF-20, 1958
Description:  Lorenz. Here is a photo via Bob Lorenz that was taken near Woodville, Ohio, on 8 March 1958. Shown here (L to R) is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #9474 and two more units whose road numbers are not recorded. All are FF-20's built by Fairbanks-Morse and rated at 2,000 horsepower each. #9474 was constructed as an FP-20A in June of 1948, later regeared and reclassified as an FF-20, and retired in November of 1962 after just 14 years of revenue service. Note that the first "car" in this train is an unidentified and inert Baldwin-built switcher. (Gift from Brad Mann.)
