Summary

[edit]
Description

cr7998 on Train Orders commented that the photo "appears to be from the steps of JD Tower at Hyattsville, MD. The train is westbound on the Washington Subdivision. The hoppers with the yellow ends were older cars that were prohibited from interchange service, these cars also had several yellow X's painted on the side to indicate that the cars were confined to on-line service. The track that diverges from the main is the Alexandria Subdivision to Potomac Yard."
