We were teenage railfans; my high school buddy is shooting from behind Dad's 1964 Ford Fairlane V8 and I'm in the middle of a barren cornfield, lensing the cleanest Platinum Mist GG-1 that we ever saw. This eastbound train is either a late Broadway Limited from Chicago or the National Limited from St. Louis. No. 906 was built by Altoona-Westinghouse as the Pennsylvania Railroad No. 4903 in June, 1940. This locomotive was saved from scrapping and is now preserved and painted as PRR 4903 in a museum in Dallas/Frisco TX. The 4903 was the 2nd locomotive in the Penn Central GG-1 doubleheader (with 4901) that pulled Robert F. Kennedy's funeral train from New York to Washington on June 8, 1968.
