Photograph of the Guilford, Connecticut, railroad station, taken by Lewis Herbert Benton. [This description provided by Richard A. Fleischer: The post in the foreground held an electric warning bell for the Whitfield Street grade crossing. The structures are, left to right, water column, passenger station, brick enclosed water tank, engine house, signal shop, section house, signal station S.S. 92, and the freight house. The relay box for the grade crossing warning bell is at the right. Benton's traveling companion Irving Drake stands on the station platform; his car is at the left. The industrial building behind the station and the derrick behind the water tank belonged to the Knowles, Lombard Co., dealer in wholesale coal and lumber, and manufacturer of canned tomatoes.]
