That's another one of the Otto Perry photos in the Denver Public Library's

Clicking on the little diagonal arrow symbol in the upper right corner of

Lynchburg, Va.

 

Probably eastbound train No. 8 is my guess.

 

Yes, REA office at left.

 

I ordered one of the prints from the same seller two weeks ago, and it still
is not showing up.
