I remember in the late 50's or beginning of the 60's visiting teh Horseshoe Curve. They had these things in those days called "passenger trains" and I remember watching one go around the curve. It was quite an experience for me as a child (and I think for the adults as well) to watch the train go by on one side and then pass by on the other side. I also have a vague memory of traveling around the Horseshoe Curve going from Altoona to Johnstown and back again.

Clearly, this was a great engineering marvel in its day and more amazing that it still is in use today. Thanks for posting.

I can remember seeing the 1361 on display in the early 80's. I always enjoyed spending time there

The grade gets steeper after the curve and reaches the summit around the tunnels.

Civil Engineers thought it through in a simple form, MILW did this tactic in Washington State.
