- Description:
- Sequence of photographs with O-23, O-24, and O-25. Frisco Engine working an industry at night. The engine is headed into the plant, going around the curve to the left. The light just inside the gate is the switchman's who is passing a signal to the fireman. There is very close clearance and much grass and weeds that make it very hazardous for the ground men to get on and off cars, or to position themselves so as to pass signals.
