At the time these photos were taken I worked as Parts Manager at the Ford dealership in East Palestine. It was owned by the same man that owned the Dodge dealership in the picture but was about 500 feet east at Market Street. I lived about 500 feet directly north of the tracks. I would spend many evenings (until it was too dark) taking photos of trains after work. The majority of them were Kodachrome slides which I have scanned at 4800 DPI. I could watch trains out of my parts room window while sitting at my desk so I did see a lot I didn't get photos of. I enjoy sharing them
