PRR "Pennsylvania Limited," #2 of 2, c. 1892         
WR. Here is the second of two successive images of photos by William H. Rau that were taken at the Horseshoe Curve near Altoona, Pennsylvania, c. 1892. Shown here is the Pennsylvania Railroad's six-car "Pennsylvania Limited" that's paused at the Curve for a portrait. Enjoying the view from the Observation Car are several passengers and traincrew members. The track at the far left suggests that preparations are already underway to build Tracks 3 and 4 around the Curve. William E. Burket Collection.
