Nice photo collection!

In photo 21 of 53, "South Side of Pier No. 5, North Side Pier No. 4" can anyone ID the car parked to the left of the Buick?
Looks like a rarity to me..

Cornell University has 60 photos taken at Portlock, Sewell's Point and Lamberts Point (three webpages, 20 images per webpage.)  All are identified as having been taken in 1960, but that appears to be an approximate number someone pulled out of the air. They also appear to be amateur-grade photos, as far as composition and sharpness, but shucks, any photos of the railroad 60 years ago are worth a gander.
