 Interesting post-Thanksgiving photo of the HB&T and those historic passenger cars on the move.  I've tried to place the scene but alas, no luck.  Do you recall where this photo was taken and what the reason for the move was?  I'm thinking its part of the inventory relocation of the GCRHS to the Mesa Dr. area.

I don't remember the reason for the move but part of the relocation from Union Station may be it - it happened around this time.
As far as location it may be crossing Buffalo Bayou possibly ?
My memory is bad on some of these locations.
