PRR 8570, ES-15M, 1965         
Rainy. Here is an original photo that I took in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 12 October 1965. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #8570, #8578, and #8577. All are ES-15M's built by EMD in September of 1953 and rated at 1,500 horsepower each. They've come down the East Slope of the Allegheny Mountains with an 84-car mineral train and are passing ALTO Tower on their way to the Eastbound Receiving Yards in Altoona. The cabin car is #477540.
