Could also be taken in St. Joseph, Mo., from the McArthur Rd. bridge. Could that be Quaker Oats in the top right-ish background?

Pete and Archie,
How about either north of Parkville or around Waldron, Mo.?

It's a northbound train...Probably Silver Streak Zephyr No. 21...due out of KC 4:00pm...shadows look right for this..
Too much room between tracks and bluffs for north of St. Joe has to be between KC & St. J...maybe Armour... East Leavenworth etc..between KC and St. J.
Power and train size look right for "late 40's...Engine Silver King..Queen etc...Definitely not Silver Charger...Early 40's would have been an E3 5 or so. I have picture late 40's train 21 at Langdon with "Shovel nose like this one.
Not much help, but I had to put in my 1 Cent
Pete

List, I found a picture of a Zephyr in an old late 40s tourism booklet for the St Joe area of Missouri. Can anyone ID the site? Seems to be a switch or junction behind the train.
