Title:  PRR 7052, EFS-17M, 1963
Description:  Tipton. Here is an original photo that I took in Tipton, Pennsylvania, on 4 August 1963. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #7052, #7182-B, and #7144. All are EFS-17M's built by GM-EMD and rated at 1,750 horsepower each. #7052 was built in October of 1956, but #7182-B and #7144 were built in November and June of 1957 respectively. They're at the Crawford Avenue grade crossing with a mixed-cargo freight train on its way from Enola to Altoona.
