New Haven Railroad ALCO Y-3 class 0-8-0 steam switcher # 3410 with its freight train is operating northbound on the Springfield main line and is heading toward the yard while at Union Station in Hartford, Connecticut 1946. This locomotive along with seven others of this class were finally retired in March 1952. You can see the fireman in his cab window. The baggage-REA car across the platform is situated on the on elevated platform track in the station for easy loading & unloading of these cars. The building seen in the background is on Union Place along with the main entrance to the station's grand waiting room.
The name of the photographer that captured this image on film is unknown. This is a modified, enhanced and cropped photo scan that is from a B&W negative in my personal collection.
