Two trains meet at the Groff's Grove depot. Strasburg Pennsylvania USA. August 1990.

I took this photo on a vacation I had taken to Strasburg Pennsylvania in August of 1990.
I took this black and white photo on the Strasburg Railroad one hazy, hot and humid summer morning. Groff's Grove depot located just across Cherry Hill road /shanty -is the halfway point where two scheduled trains meet on the 4 and 1/2 mile Strasburg Railroad. Baldwin 2-10-0 type No# 90 to the right, was built in 1924 for the Great Western Railway of Colorado. Locomotive # 90 is slowing for it's scheduled stop at Groff's Grove, while former Canadian National 0-6-0 No # 31 passes on the runaround track during a break in test run.
