NYC Roundhouse Destruction  Contributor's Pick!       
This appears to be an original amateur photo of New York Central roundhouse at Ansonia, Ohio, after the March 1st, 1955 tornado that swept through the area around 1 am. The three Mikados are sitting among the ruins of their roundhouse. A stamp on the back indicates this photo is from the Jeffrey Moreau collection.
