Title:  PRR 5809, EP-22, 1965
Description:  Winter. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train in Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 03 January 1965. Shown here (L to R) are PRR engines #5809, #5842-B, and #5890. All were built by EMD. #5809 is an EP-22 built in 1951 and rated at 2,250 horsepower. #5824-B is an EP-20 built in 1947 and rated at 2,000 horsepower. #5890 is an EP-22 built in 1950 and rated at 2,250 horsepower. They are pulling a 19-car westbound passenger train and are about to stop at the Altoona Passenger Station; the time is 2:11 P.M. Visible in the background are some of the PRR's Passenger Car Shops.

PRR 5809, EP-22, 1966
Title:  PRR 5809, EP-22, 1966
Description:  Museum Bound. Here is an original photo that I took of a Pennsylvania Railroad train near Union Furnace, Pennsylvania, on 16 April 1966. Shown here is PRR engine #5809 and two other units whose numbers are not visible. #5809 is an EP-22 built by EMD in 1951 and rated at 2,250 horsepower. They are pulling an eastbound mail/express train. This photo was taken where the tracks bridge the Little Juniata River west of the stone quarry crossing, just off of State Route 453. In later years, #5809 was reconditioned in 1975 and placed in active excursion service ~ first with the Juniata Terminal, later with Mr. Bennett Levin of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
