Maybe photographed at an "open day" for railroad enthusiasts? A freight engine like an H5 probably wasn't this shiny-clean very often!

(B.t.w.: I usually don't comment on your posts because I don't have anything useful to contribute. But I always look at them, and I appreciate your efforts to show us interesting old photos-- Thank you, very much!)
