    old (1912) locomotives & crew photo...

    Cool old railroad photograph of a pair of locomotives, some employees, and a dog. On the back are the employees' last names and their job titles. It even mentions "the pup" (if I read it correctly).
    I have had it for several years and have not been able to find any info about a rail yard or shop in Summit SD. Maybe the pros on railroad sites could tell me more.

    thanks, GrayCloud.

    i have found out that the railroad company is/was Chicago, Milwaukee, and St. Paul.

    To me, the style of headlight on the locomotive looks like the style used widely on the Chicago & Northwestern R.R. Very nice photo! Do you want to sell it? How much do you want for it? It fit in great in my collection of old photos.
