View of Lambert Point Yard and Government Yard Leads, 1960

 File — Box: 61, Folder: 83

Scope and Contents

Another view of the Lambert's Point yard and also shows the government yard leads. There are many employees in this vicinity. As you can see on the left, some of the employees' cars are parked along the tracks. There are many pool and time freight crews and yard crews in this yard and considerable train movement converging on these main line lead tracks in the center of the picture. The main line is reached by means of 4 to 6 crossovers. These conditions make it necessary for the fireman to maintain constant lookout for other employees on the ground, and other train movements.
