A silver streamlined passenger train is entering a forested tunnel on a model railroad layout

It’s June 1937, and the two-year-old Boston & Maine Flying Yankee is still in pristine shape. The train is emerging from the Hoosac Tunnel on Bill Moore’s HO scale Bedford Mountain Division of the B&M. Bill, of Grosse Pointe Park, Mich., also took the photo.
