Seeing Trainz: Steam on Horseshoe Curve

For the men who worked in the Pennsylvania Railroad’s Juniata Shops in Altoona Pennsylvania, taking their families for a drive out to Horseshoe Curve for a relaxing Sunday afternoon picnic was a good way to get away from the city’s bustle. A visit to the curve not only provided the opportunity to unwind in a serene environment, but also for a boilermaker to point out to his son an engine he re-tubed, or for a machinist to point out to his daughter an engine he made new brasses for. Altoona’s bread and butter was the Pennsylvania railroad, and the city was proud of the role it played in keeping one of the largest railroads in the world rolling. There was no better place to see that work be put to the test than Horseshoe Curve. Many believed that steam locomotives and the Pennsylvania Railroad would live on forever. However, the last steam locomotive on the Pennsylvania Railroad made its final run in 1957, and the Pennsylvania Railroad merged with the New York Central to form the ill-fated Penn Central in 1968. For those who witnessed the glory days of Pennsy steam however, they can look back fondly on memories of sights that today many could only imagine.
