New Portage. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train near Foot-of-Ten on the New Portage Branch Line west of Duncansville, Pennsylvania, on 14 June 1964. Shown here is PRR N-5C Caboose #477842 at the end of a 77-car westbound freight train. Most of the cars in this train have just been produced at the PRR's Samuel Rea Shop in Hollidaysburg. Note the big yellow circle on the newly-built hopper car; this new H-43 can carry 100 tons of cargo! Wave to the Conductor! |
