Nutbush ?  Virginian Railway's main line Victoria to Roanoke was primarily "dark territory" -- no CTC or Automatic Block System., predominately a timetable and train order operation.  The Virginian time table showed the Nutbush meeting time  for Nos. 3 and 4 in bold black numbers..

Good morning:

There's not much to go on regarding identifiable landmarks or other characteristics, but perhaps someone has seen this photo before and knows the location, date, and photographer.

Guesses welcomed; something is better than nothing.
