| Niles I. Here is the eighth of 11 original photos by George Niles, Jr., that were taken at the Pennsylvania Railroad's Horseshoe Curve near Altoona, Pennsylvania, perhaps during 1952. Shown here is an unidentified Pennsylvania Railroad "J" Class (2-10-0) "Decapod" steam locomotive rounding the Curve with a mixed-cargo freight train that's heading up the Allegheny Mountains to Gallitzin and points West. Wave to the Fireman! |
