Remarks & Notes

The Interstate heritage unit leads a Pennsylvania Power & Light unit coal train down the mountain, and around Horseshoe Curve. Easing along at 10mph, it takes two big units up front, 4 SD40E helpers on the rear, and air brakes, to safely move the train through this strenuous territory. Photo by Casey Thomason.
