Here's the only half-decent shot I have of the one in Antonito, taken 08/28/67. I'm sorry it's a bit fuzzy, but it was taken with my dad's old Practika 35mm. I think the guy on the right is some back-east flatlander dude from TRAINS magazine:
This one, taken exactly a year later with a much better camera, is from too far away to see any detail:
