| Kern. Here is a duplicate 35mm color slide of a photo by Fred Kern that was taken in Mount Union, Pennsylvania, on 30 August 1953. Shown here (L to R) are Pennsylvania Railroad engines #9600 and two more "AF" Class units whose road numbers are not recorded. All were built by the American Locomotive Company. #9600 is an AF-15 built in July of 1948, rated at 1,500 horsepower, and retired in December of 1963 after just 15 years of revenue service. |
