Horseshoe!
There's lots happening on Horseshoe Curve near Altoona, PA this afternoon. A westbound Conrail freight is clawing its way up and around the 180-degree curve, its four diesel units sending exhaust skyward. Meanwhile an eastbound drops down the 1.45% grade, brakeshoe smoke curling from the hot wheels.
May 1977.
