Can anyone post photos of both sides of the 6634?
Then we can see if the "ladder" is on the left corner on both sides or if they are on the same end of the car.

I write "ladder" because it does not go to the roof. But instead provides more hand holds for a brakeman/switchman while switching the car on or off the train.

I was thinking that if the car is always turned with the train and only removed and added at Durango having the "ladders" on the one end that would next to the train would be better for the switchman.

I could be thinking too much.
