PC Westbound Passenger Train, 1969         
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.
