Here is the third of nine successive original photos by Douglas C. Jones that were taken from the 17th Street Bridge in the Juniata section of Altoona, Pennsylvania, c. 1953. Shown here are numerous Pennsylvania Railroad steam locomotives parked on the Engine Ready Tracks. None of their road numbers are recorded. In the left foreground, note that this locomotive's driving rods have been tossed into its tender's coal bunker in preparation for movement for scrapping.
