Bob,
It (the snowplow) was sitting near the yard office and tower at the West end
of the yard. there were 3 setoff tracks the length of the yard that were
right next to the mainline & if u count them as 1 2 & 3, the plow was sitting
on #5 or 6. The foto is lots clearer - I still have trouble with my scanner &
I agree with u - if I could lighten it up, it'd be clearer. I sure wish I'd
taken some foto classes at SUNY Binghamton. Usually I had my camera in my
grip & if I saw something, I'd take a shot, but at the time, the main thing
was running the engine.
Here's a good example - just leaving Hoboken Terminal in the summer of
1962 or 3 and as we were pulling, I leaned out the window on the firemans
side of the Alco RS-3 & took this shot looking back toward the trainshed.
Look at the PA & all the old MUs. I'm sending this foto as an attachment.
Hope it comes thru OK.
Regards,
Walter E. Smith
