[QUOTE="Sandpatch, post: 817307, member: 10543"] From July 1980 on the former Pennsylvania Railroad mainline west of Altoona at Bennington Curve, two Conrail SD-45s have completed their shove over the Allegheny summit and are starting downgrade. "Helper" locomotives such as these are assigned to mountainous districts to assist trains over steep grades. I shot this from a campsite friends and I set up for the weekend. Looking either way, the view was fantastic. [Nikkormat FTn, Kodachrome] [ATTACH type="full" alt="1980-07 007 Bennington PA - for upload.jpg"]402300[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
