Throwback Thursday

This shot taken in 1913 along the NYC's "Egyptian Line" at Kentland, Indiana shows part of a work train including 3 Boldman men: l. to r.-Frank Boldman, Thomas Boldman and John Boldman. Photo is believed to have been taken by Wilmer Boldman. Phil Boldman family collection.

At the time of this photo, the Boldmans were primarily in charge of maintaining watering systems (pumps, towers, etc) on the line, however, there were many family members with all sorts of jobs.

Also in shot is CI&S (NYCL) #151 M.O.W. car, labeled as Water Department. IHB #X11 & another CI&S car. The train is sitting in the southbound pass track with the men standing with their feet facing the southward track, followed by the northward track. It looks as though they are facing another photographer who may be on the NYC's depot platform.

View looks N/W from the area near the depot.
