A northbound train departs Little Silver, NJ on the NY&LB RR. This photo was underexposed but through the magic of Photoshop we see many things here, including the gas station on the left, and cars waiting at the crossing including a "woody". All of them along with the K4 combine to make a classic early color photo. The location could be Sycamore Avenue. Thanks to William Henderson for the proper location identification.
Comments:
I believe this is the Sycamore Ave. crossing in Little Silver. The station is behind the train, which is northbound.
Does anyone know specifically where in Red Bank this is? For the life of me i can't place it. I have worked in Red Bank for years and can't seem to place any of the landmarks. (Ed: see further comment for location correction)
The woody is a '49 or '50 Ford, if I'm not mistaken. There are a few '51 Ford wagons on Hemmings right now. Quite pricey, too.
Is that a traffic cop standing in the intersection? (behind the woody?)
That is an Esso station.
