Good Morning!

	Compare with the jacket cover and color plate No.1 of the CERA West
Penn book which is the same as the B&W cover photo of the PERC
production on WP in 1952--1955.    Says it is Brownsville Jct.

	Looks like a Stephenson 200-224 series car on the trestle.    The
240-252 series looks similar but most of them were scrapped in the
Depression.    The Cincinnati, Niles, and Jewett 600s were longer and
were gone in the Depression as well; this car doesn't look long enough.
