Remarks & Notes

"ALTO" HelperLink-Converted SD70ACUs #7241 and #7243 bring up the rear on 25Z, an intermodal to Chicago. To the right is the iconic ALTO Tower. ALTO controlled this part of Altoona for 97 years, beginning service in 1915, and being decommissioned in 2012. There has been talk of demolishing ALTO, but as of now, its future is uncertain.
