That scene looks like a railroad museum circa 2019

Those obstuctions help make that a great picture.   That must be 1950s?  Any ideea where?

Those "obstructions" make the scene.  It captures what it takes to run a railroad.  If the "obstructions" were objectionable,  pan a little right and get them out of the way.

Wow ! Dave Augsburger knew what he was doing. Here is a case where clutter is better. It's all in the details.

Great!  Gates are up so train is at station, waiting, or unloding?

The Quakertown depot, whose roof can be seen above top of the locomotive, has been restored as an events space.  Tours of the depot are offered.  For more information, go to:

What looks like a 1956 Ford is in the background. So mid-Fifties is likely. The loco looks relatively new. Reading bought them in the early Fifties.
