Very interesting, along with your other shots of the line. The loco looks to be lettered NPRR, what did that stand for?

Great picture, thank you for photographing and posting this! Maybe there's still hope for the railroad...

Nick, the NPRR on the engine stands for Narragansett Pier Railroad. It was a Rhode Island based short line that ran from Kingston, RI to Wakefield, RI. The line ceased operations in 1981. The loco shown in this pic is still on the Yancey RR property. Thanx for sharing Mr. Sink!
