I have no notes from the collection regarding the date and location of this photo. It appears to be Logan, CA, circa 1940. The number boards are blurry but they appear to say 2-98. There's a small saddle tank steam engine to the right of the train. Photographer most likely Bill Darrough, from the Darrough Collection.
