PRR 7924, ES-12, 1961
Description:
Everyday. Here is an original photo that I took in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, on 9 August 1961. Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #7924, an ES-12 switcher built by GM-EMD in November of 1957 and rated at 1,200 horsepower. In this context, it's pulling a mixed-cargo freight train out of the Hollidaysburg Yards to the Wye Switches and Altoona. Also visible is a small portion of Broad Street at the left. Photo taken from the PRR cabin car on static display as part of Hollidaysburg's 125th Anniversary Celebration. ("Red Shift" slide converted to Black & White.)

It's pulling the five-car "Roaring Spring Local" through Hollidaysburg on its way to the Altoona Yards along with N-5 cabin car #477094. Visible in the near distance are the railroad bridge over the West Branch of the Juniata River and the PRR's Passenger Station. Visible in the far distance are some of the Allegheny Mountains which, seemingly, cradle the Borough of Hollidaysburg. Photo taken near the western end of the PRR's Freight Station on South Juniata Street.
