View from 18th Street Bridge Looking West, 1961

 File — Box: 53, Folder: 23

Scope and Contents

Same as P-11, except train of freight cars is at upper left of photo. Again note men working at bottom of photo. This is another view to the west from the 18th Street Bridge. This shows more clearly how all the tracks at left of photograph curve to the left.Note also the workmen in the lower part of the picture as for whom no protection is provided against trains pulling into the freight yards at the left. The fireman is their only real protection since he has the best view on the curves. Notice also the movement of the train at the upper right of the photograph and of the ground signals and water hydrants at left center of picture.
