Please see: https://www.ebay.com/itm/196332355537?_skw=post&itmmeta=01JBNJJS745EYHZXZGDQTR5W34&hash=item2db651ffd1:g:ClwAAOSwFIllrbxz

Does anyone recognize the location better than only "Bluefield?"  The track at the right appears to be up-grade and may enter into a tunnel.  I anticipate these are the back sides of interlocking home signals and did not realize that some blades were painted red on the back while others were white.

The remnants of a postmark on the back indicate that the view is circa 1920.

Happy holidays,
