Album Info:Ever wonder what's inside, the relay sheds we see everyday? This ones located on Mill Street in Cumberland, Rhode Island on the Providence and Worcester Railroad. Larger than most, it protects 2 crossings on Mill Street. The Providence main visible in back of the shed and the East Providence Branch immediately to my left
