Great catch. My favorite warning was a C&O railroad policeman's "If you set foot out of your car,you'll be arrested."

The cracks in the white background paint look like a complex route map!

Given the date taken, the cracks are reflective of the railroads condition; the Rock's rocking was just about over.
Thanks for the most insightful photo posting.
