Here is a postal card entitled "Classification Yards, Altoona, Pa." Postmarked: 30 July 1915. In the foreground are the Pennsylvania Railroad's Westbound Classification Yards, looking eastward from the 17th Street Bridge in Juniata. At the far left, a trusty "Consolidated" shifts cars in the Yard. In the middle distance, HOMER Tower sits astride the mainline passenger tracks. The smoke at the far right marks the location of the locomotive ready tracks adjacent to the 50-stall East Altoona Roundhouse. |
