 All,
I don't think this is on the main line.  Note the pole line at the extreme right.  Look how close it is in proximity to the Colored War Memorial Building.  Rather, I think this is some kind of belt/house track remnant that was left in place of the original main line that ran down the present US 52.  Plus, look how large the parking lot is in comparison to what is now left.

  Based on the very late '40s Packard, I'd agree that the photo is in the 1940's, probably around 1948.  'Bout the best I can do.  That impressive building should be a dead giveaway to someone familiar with the area.

is labeled: 2071 with cars, Eckman VA (sic).However, the substantial, columned building behind the tender seems to belie this being in Eckman.  The automobiles look 40s to me.  Does anyone have any thoughts on the correct location for this photo? Thanks,Jim Cochran
