PRR 7244, EFS-17M, 1965
Title:  PRR 7244, EFS-17M, 1965
Description:  WIL-ALT-65. Here is an original photo that I took while riding in a Pennsylvania Railroad passenger train from Harrisburg to Altoona during August of 1965. Shown here (R to L) are PRR engine #7244 and another unit whose number is not recorded. Both were built by EMD. #7244 is an EFS-17M built in 1959 and rated at 1,750 horsepower. They are pulling a westbound mixed-cargo freight train near Newport, Pennsylvania.
