Not sure how important the rail abandonment information is to dating the aerial photo. The rail line was abandoned on a specific date, but the rails weren't ripped up on that date.
It's important because service ceased in August of 1938 and there is no in-use trolley track visible in the picture - save for the dead-end track in the yard - so the rails were already ripped out. The information set a new bottom limit of 1938 at a time when that limit was 1937 - one step in the process, for those who are paying attention.

That's why I wrote the following under my Rt 17 info:
"None of this helps our quest"

Thanks, but that identification was provided by our good friend, the Editor.
