TRB. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide that was taken at the eastern end of the Rockville Bridge near Rockville, Pennsylvania. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #5768 and another E-8 whose number is not recorded. Both are EP-22's built by GM-EMD and rated at 2,250 horsepower each. #5768 was built in April of 1952. In this context, they've just crossed the Susquehanna River with an eastbound passenger train and will soon arrive at the Harrisburg Station. Photo taken from ROCKVILLE Tower. The photographer's name and the date are not recorded. |
