EL Keeper / RandyoThat was "the date" on the back of the photo in pencil -- but I would fully agree (and I will correct my URL-listed date for it) that it should more be like 1917-1920 era. The Hi-V Manual Door controlled cars had safety covers placed over their center door end control levers after that time (during the late 1920's). As far as the side metal route signs -- they could have been hung there randomly and not displaying a specific route because that sign was not hung and thus missing at the time not or was removed and placed in the sign storage box. I was more interested in the location of the car which I identified because I know the line, the yards and area well. And THAT was relative to what the photo was posted for. regards - Joe F |
