Ties and bowties for a picnic and a romp at the lake. Must have been an important occasion. The big-smile boy sure seems a happy fellow.

Are the tracks down the center of the road for a train, maybe a street car ?

My bet is street car.

I suspect probably a trolley line, but some towns still had the train running through town at this time. I can't see the overhead for a trolley line clearly, but then that's my eyes.....

I don't know Hanover well enough having limited visits there, but I might have one of the books on the streetcars of PA that covers Hanover.

I downloaded the picture and sharpened it in photoshop, there are overhead wires.

Thanks! Saved me from rummaging through my library, :wink: I wonder though if that line connected to York or elsewhere - maybe I need to look in the library after all...........

I tried cropping it a bit, but I am not sure I see wires for a trolley line. Would you show us what you got with sharpening it in photoshop?

If you look at the Coca Cola sign, you can see some lines running in the right direction.

Some info I found on the internet....

The early 20th century brought to Pennsylvania the Hanover Fast Line, a trolley service for people traveling between York and Hanover and other nearby communities. On weekdays, residents commuted to work on the trolley, and on weekends they traveled to neighboring towns for church, shopping, or picnics.

The trolley line was shuttered in the late 1930s after automobile use soared, and eventually the line was converted into an electric utility corridor.

Lot of pictures but not what we are looking for
