Sequence with O-26, O-27, O-28, O-29, O-31, O-32. The engine has advanced just a little further along the rack. The engine at the top of the photo is entering a very heavily traveled street crossing, 19th Street. Notice the building at the top left corner of the picture. It blocks the motorists' view of the engine on the track. Due to the curvature of the track the engineer cannot see the street until the engine has entered the street crossing. There is also a main line switch in front of the house. The fireman is the only one who can see the switch and the crossing. The engineer operates in the blind, depending completely on the fireman for instructions. In this sequence of photos there are two GP7 hooded type engines coupled together.
