"Pennsy" Magazine, November-December 1960
Description:
Here is a photo from an article entitled "The New Electrics." It was published originally in the November-December 1960 issue of "Pennsy" magazine, page 1. Photo Caption: "The E-44 produces 4,400 horsepower compared with the P-5's 3,750, and has greater acceleration or get-away ability. Another important feature is that the entire weight of the E-44 rests on its driving wheels, not partially on guiding trucks as in the P-5. This gives the new locomotive greater adhesion, which means less wheel slippage with correspondingly less wear on wheels and rails." Shown here is Pennsylvania Railroad engine #4400, an E-44 built by General Electric in October of 1960 and rated at 4,400 horsepower. The photographer's name, the exact date, and the location are not recorded.

PRR E44 #4461
Description:
From all appearances, this is an early color photograph soon after #4461 and #4464 were delivered in 1963. Although not identified,I thought it might be the Meadows Yard in Kearney, NJ, where these brutes were often found but with Brian Ferrell's help and followup, I believe it is the PRR Yard an Enola, PA.. The unit was built by GE in 1963, had two single-arm Faiveley pantographs and could generate 4400 hp although not outfitted with steam generators for passenger use. According to Wikipedia, "The units were delivered in an entirely new paint scheme. While adorned in the familiar PRR Brunswick Green, the units carried the sans-serif road name in yellow, flanked by two small PRR keystones, together with a keystone on the front and rear, and a large yellow road number. This scheme was unique to the E44; all subsequent diesel orders omitted the road name." All E44's were retired in 1981 when Conrail eleminated electrification and sold to Amtrak. No exact date or photographer listed for this photo.
