Lehigh & New England Railroad G-1 class 2-8-2 Mikado steam locomotive 503 (former PRR L1 class 1719) with a manifest fright train is seen slowly entering a yard area in New York State, ca late 1940's

            Lehigh & New England Railroad G-1 class 2-8-2 Mikado steam locomotive 503 (former PRR L1 class 1719) with a manifest fright train is seen slowly entering a yard area in New York State, ca late 1940's.  Actually the train may be stopped at this location when the photographer captured this image on film.  You can see the fireman in the cab and perhaps the brakeman standing on the gangway deck.  As to the location, this freight train may be entering the New Haven Railroad Maybrook Yard.

This photo came from my Railroad photo collection, however; the photographers name was not available.  Any credit for this photo must be provided to the original photographer.
