I don't believe this is a Lackawanna Station but I can't swear to it. Its  
seems to have the 
two tone green and red.  Stroudsburg was the only station that came to  mind, 
but I don't think it fits.  Those unique uprights should be a dead  give away 
for someone. 
 
I also think Stroudsburg would not have been rural enough to have  that many 
deer brought into town. This could be any rural town big enough to  have a 
substantial station, and close enough to the forests to attract  hunters. D&H, 
Erie, and O&W all could be possibilities.
 
I'll forward it on to the EL group, and maybe someone on there can forward  
it on to the O&W and D&H groups.  I'm sure with the diverse  membership 
population someone will say, SURE
THAT'S...............................  taken from  the    ............... end 
of the station which was built in  ............ and was demolished in 
................. ..  I lived just down  the street and up the hill from there.  lol
