Based on the first image, it appears that the Fort George tunnel was originally intended to have three tracks.

The third track was a siding that began right outside the mouth of the tunnel. It was in service as a supply track from 1906 to 1929.
The car that is on the siding is No 3342. This was the First All-Steel Car built by the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1903. She was found to be too heavy for regular service but she did serve for a number of years as the Paymaster's Car.
