Unless it was a military or government security operation, I don't really think much could have been done to stop your taking pictures from a public vantage point.

But that is today's thinking..
even if it was technically legal to take those photos back in the 60's or 70's, most people didnt have the "I know my rights" way of thinking back then..people usually just accepted the "word" of guards and security and didn't question it..(whether the security guard had "proper" authority to prohibit photography, or not, is beside the point)

Sounds like a mass photography session (with lawyer in tow) ought to be organized.

From an old computer I'm stripping down.... origin of this photo and why it was saved escapes me.

Great shot. I wonder where it was taken? What did Mopac trade their FA's in for?

GP18s I believe. They had AAR type B trucks.
