This photo was taken on the White Pass & Yukon during the period that the US Army was running the railroad during WW2. The photographer was likely Sergeant Guy Latham who worked as engineer on #81 aka Sumpter Valley Ry. #19. The scan is from a collection shared with our SVRR Archive by the Latham family.
