| WB. Here is an image of a photo by Richard J. Solomon that was taken in Altoona, Pennsylvania, in 1963. Shown here are three unidentified Pennsylvania Railroad diesel-electric locomotives pulling the "Duquesne" as it begins its ascent up the Allegheny Mountains to Johnstown and points West. In the distance (L to R) are the Passenger and Freight Stations, the 12th Street Footbridge, plus some of the 12th Street Car Shops. Photo taken from the 17th Street Bridge. William E.
