I don't really remember taking the picture and after I took it marked the slide a "tower." So it is also a new pleasant surprise to me too.

The more you look at it the more you learn. Check out the hub cap. The screens tell you what windows they opened. Why is there a mechanical refer and hopper car back there? If there had been a local switching, I would have a picture of the loco. There is no Western Union sign but I bet the agent could send/receive telegrams. Tim, it looks like an Editor's Choice to me.
