DC Transit (Glen Echo line) passing beneath the GB, (late 1950s)
Moments after the first pic was taken, the train blew its horn off in the distance and approached the tunnel. Train is westbound, headed to Georgetown.

More like 1959 when I last rode the line to Glen Echo. -

When I input this info into the site, I was going on slide developing dates and unfortunately the photographer hadn't recorded the date of the actual photo. You are correct!
