Special flat |
| Description: |
I caught a train of 32 of these cars northbound on the UP Greeley Sub. Some were these KRL cars, owned by Kasgro Rail Lines, some by Trailer Train. This one comes in lite at 170,000 lbs, with a load limit of 460,000. Heavy stuff!! |

More TTX |
| Description: |
The train had a few more of these than the KRL cars, but was pretty well split. I shot a bunch. Here, you can see how the span bolsters link each truck, and how the body is mounted to the wheels. |

Not much of this any more |
| Description: |
Forty years ago, sights like this were common, and trailers of all sizes were on every intermodal train. With the advent of stacked containers in the mid 1980s, and their rapid growth as the economics proved themselves, sights like this became more and more uncommon. Out west, they are holding on, some UPS and ABF pups riding south on the Greeley Sub. |

PRR Coaling Tipple, 1965 |
| Description: |
Coaling Tipple. Here's the view ~ facing railroad west ~ from atop the Pennsylvania Railroad's coaling tipple in East Altoona, Pennsylvania, on 11 September 1965. It consists of two original telephotos of mine that have been expertly spliced together by Mr. Lance Myers (AltoonaWorks.info). At the far left is a yellow work train with a 250-ton wrecking crane. Beyond Juniata's 17th Street Bridge are the orange Railroader's YMCA and the eastbound Classification Yard. The square building in the center is the Power House. Further to the right is the East Altoona Roundhouse, now just half of its original 50-stall size. The large structure at the far right ~ beyond Juniata's 8th Street Bridge ~ is the Erecting & Machine Shop. Close inspection also reveals the presence of three locomotives heading our way. |

| Description: |
Coaling Tipple. Here is the third of three photos published on page 21 of the Monday, 8 April 1968, issue of the "Altoona Mirror." Photo Caption: "OOPS! ~ Something went wrong. Construction workers assured photographers the tipple would fall into the pit, but the structure was evidently not in on the plans, and it became the tipple which refused to topple." |
