Southern Knoxville Division Mail train #4         
Southern Knoxville Division local mail train #4 from Knoxville is arriving at its final stop of Bristol (crossing State Street). The train has a single rider coach hidden by the two boxcars in the yard. The railroad worker is riding up to where F3 #4151 will be cut off. We are looking south towards the Norfolk & Western position light signal that allowed eastbounds to come into the depot. Delivered in January of 1947, #4151 was later rebuilt to F7 standards, to be retired in the 1969-73 era.
