NYC 9325 Carey OH 21958
It's February 1958 and "Stick Season" is in full swing on a dreary dull day, but the action is anything but boring!
The New York Central yard crew in Carey, Ohio is switching out a cut of cars which will most likely get picked up by the oncoming freight or head to the C&O and AC&Y interchanges. There could be one or two cars headed to Vanlue as the local businesses in town were still getting rail shipments.
The signal system is still in service at this time and the operator in the depot at Carey is controlling the action between Carey and Wharton. There is a siding at Wharton that would undoubtedly see use from time to time despite it being rather short.
