AHC. Here is an original 35mm color slide by an unidentified photographer that was taken at the Horseshoe Curve near Altoona, Pennsylvania, in September of 1969. Shown here is a pair of unidentified Penn Central Railroad locomotives pulling a six-car passenger train around the Curve and up the Allegheny Mountains to Pittsburgh. Silent in the center is PRR K-4S "Pacific" #1361. Partially visible at the left is Kittanning Point; the valley beyond it marks the route of the old Kittanning Indian Trail. |
