This is the
Pennsylvania Railroad's RED ARROW which is passing the old
Delray Tower enroute to Fort Street Union Station around 8:00
a.m. The train carried sleeping cars, a bar-lounge, and a
dining car. This photo was taken on July 29, 1941.
The RED ARROW trains were named after a World War I infantry
troop. Note that Delray Tower was replaced with the
current tower in the mid-1940's, after World War II. The
diamond being crossed is the NYC Detroit-Toledo line. [E.
