Late last night I was organizing a circa 1915 photo-and-negative collection in the museum and I found this negative with no corresponding photo. I took it home and used the adapter on my scanner to scan the negative and this is the resulting image. I don't know if I have scanned it in reverse, but I guess it doesn't matter.
I assume this was taken at the arch on Morris Turnpike in Millburn. I rescanned the train on the left alone so you can see the detail and I have attached that, too. It appears to have "Lackawanna" on the side of one of the cars.
I would like to submit this photo to the local paper, too. May I ask for help with a proper caption for it? What comes to mind when you look at it?
Thank you again.
