Part 3 of "Clear Track Ahead!", a PRR promotional film on the advancements of railroad transportation in the USA. There's some very nice footage of the T1's in here.
I bet some OSHA wag would have a cow with those guys at the Altoona test plant working w/that T1! No hearing protection, standing waay too close to those side rods and valve gear in motion, prob several other boo-boos as well. Never see that today!

If only there was such a thing as a time machine...
very nice. Were those the ALCo shops? I live up, near them and I recognise the cranes out front.
