There are several excellent photos of the Alamosa shops circa 1967 - including a track plan and some interior shots - in "Rio Grande Narrow Gauge - The Final Years, Alamosa to Chama" by Joseph P. Hereford, Jr. and Ernest W. Robart. As there is no publisher or ISBN info in my book, I have no idea how help others to find a copy other than "Google" ...

p.s. Was that slatted car, #859 in the photo posted by Bob G, used to transport early-day foamers?
