World Famous Horseshoe Curve - Altoona , Pennsylvania


Recommended Posts

My grandfather worked on the Pa Railroad when I was a kid went around there many times on a Sunday afternoon with him to Altoona.

 

 

That's a lot of train

impressive stuff......them engines pulling around there have got some power for sure...

There is a 1.8% grade around the curve as well. I've seen three or four engines pulling and a couple pushing depend rpthe amount of cars.
