Throwback Thursday
In an undated photo, this view at Sheff, Indiana is looking N/N/W from just south of the tower and Big 4 crossing. Thomas Boldman stands at right in the middle of the 3 men. I am assuming this was taken by either Wilmer or John Boldman and I would guess that the other 2 employees standing with Thomas are management type. I don't see the operator in the tower, but I don't think the other 2 outside are operators by the way they are dressed.
Along with "F" tower stand 3 track side shanty's. I would guess there were signal, section and possibly just a shanty for Thomas' motorcar.
The New York Central's Egyptian line was in it's prime at this time and unfortunately, the Boldmans didn't take any train pictures. Most of the stuff I have got from Phil is people and building and construction type photos.
