"The Berksie"
This was a Reading gas electric car (#4067) that ran from the Slatington depot on the Lehgh Valley's branch line out to Emerald, and then continued on the Reading Line out past Best station. The train at one time brought students in to school in the morning, and then back out in the afternoon.

"I thought the building's set back position was Hallman's. Now I look at it again and notice the cast iron fence in foreground. That fence still stands across the street from Hallman's. The former borough hall building to left should also have made the photo more identifiable.
