"Unknown Picture"-Identified

 

"This photo was given to me by the Belfast Historical Society. It is a pic of something arriving or going on the PRR RR. Cars on a siding. The Mill in the background and of course the depot is behind the RR car. Does anyone know what the flat car is carrying and what it was to be for? Was it something made at the Tank Co. in Belfast? So glad to have the photo, very interesting.  Thanks , Gert Hall Caneadea Historian" 10/14/04

An Answer Received: "The picture identifed above is of a large pipe like object on a railroad flat car. This is a part to be used in the construction of the Caneadea dam Rushford Lake - The Belfast Historical Society has a post card of it.....Ted Palmer"
