Description: |
I may stand corrected but I belive the story goes something like this. The 501 was being moved, pbly to Conway. Someone threw an old rain coat and other debris into the firebox to make some smoke for the camera. Anyone confm?? /DL |

Switching! Ray apparently climbed onto the walk way on top of a box car spotted at the freight house for this shot. If my geography is correct the station is behind the camera... Do I stand corrected?? The year is off the back of the print, the summer date is my guess. /DL |

There is no info with this photograph, however the scene appears to be taken in Wilton, Maine and is very similar to other perspectives taken by Ray Higgins. The box car is a Boston and Maine and I think the number is 7151. The WigWag is wagging a nice touch to this c1940 scene. MEC Class W1 - ALCO-S No52994 - BLT 2/13 - Sc 5/52 - Cyl 23x28 with 61 inch divers and a 185 lb boiler. /DL |
