   Looks like they are restringing wire. Was the S&NY still using telegraphs when this was taken?
   There is a caboose; railroad rules, union rules or the crew’s desire to have a warm spot and hot coffee?
   Was the flanger stored in Newbury yard? The next project on your list should be that flanger.
   Got to admire the photographer for going along on that cold trip.

   I think all of the winter shots were shot by Steve VanGorder (SNY brakeman) immediately after a big storm in Feb-Mar. 1942. The snow brought down a lot of the telephone wires up in the mountains.

   I think the flanger was stored somewhere at Newberry. As far as building it, it’s somewhere on the list…:)
