Photo Caption: "In 1911, the year this picture was taken, the Class H-5 and H-6 locomotives were handling much of the freight. This is a very unusual and interesting photo as it shows an eastbound freight, headed by one of those engines, with its entire train rounding the Curve." (Part 2 of a two-part centerfold photo.)
