    I immediately guessed Texas Mexican at Laredo, Texas but GoogleEarth showed it didn't quite all match.
    The tank cars at the top of the picture sure look close to the fouling point, but maybe that's just the perspective...

    Sand Springs Railway, Sand Springs, OK

    Once an interurban, built by local businessmen Charles Page, it connected this city to Tulsa, just to the east. Motive power consists of three EMD switchers.
