PRR, ELDO Action, #1 of 8, 1966
Description:
ELDO Action. Here is the first of eight original photos that I took in the Eldorado section of Altoona, Pennsylvania, in January of 1966. In the foreground is the railroad grade crossing at 58th Street. Visible in the distance are a switch, the "ELDO" shanty, another position-light signal, as well as a Pennsylvania Railroad train waiting for orders to proceed. These are the tracks connecting Altoona (to the front) and Hollidaysburg (to the rear). From 1850 to 1854, while the Horseshoe Curve was under construction, this was actually part of the PRR's main line between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh.

Mann. Here is a photo by an unidentified photographer that was taken at the Horseshoe Curve near Altoona, Pennsylvania, c. 1954. Shown here (L to R) is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #9875 and two more units whose road numbers are not recorded. All were built by GM-EMD and rated at 1,500 horsepower each. #9875 is an EF-15A constructed in September of 1952 and retired in October of 1967 after just 15 years of revenue service. In this context, this A-B-A set is pulling a TrucTrain around the Curve and up the Allegheny Mountains to Gallitzin and points West. (Gift from Brad Mann.)
