Photographs, Black and White ; 24 x 18 cm.
The aerial photograph shows a rural area dominated by a large rail yard with many parallel tracks extending diagonally across the left side of the image. Several branching lines and intersections connect to smaller roads and open fields. Rectangular agricultural fields fill the surrounding landscape, interspersed with patches of wooded areas and scattered farm buildings. A winding river appears in the bottom left corner. Some sections of the image are partially obscured by cloud cover. The bottom right corner contains the label "Fairchild Aerial Surveys Inc N.Y.C.," and the top right corner shows the code "8226-83."
