RE: picture puzzle
Author: jeff

Yesterday I saw a picture puzzle showing a scene in a railroad yard. There were over thirty yard tracks visible. The era of the photo was probably the 1970s - a couple of Conrail boxcars and several open auto racks are shown. It is a larger puzzle, 1000 pieces and is about 24 x 24 inches when assembled. I'd guess it was in the midwest due to the large variety of road names and the many flats cars with new farm machinery.

Does anyone know where the photo was taken or anything else about the photo?

I have a 500-piece puzzle with a similar picture, though I couldn't find any Conrail cars on it (definitely more than 30 tracks!). It had to be in the late 1970s, because there were some blue NRUC and ROCK box cars (and Conrail could have been there). There was a N&W caboose on one track, so I'm wondering if it might have been taken at Decatur.
