Yes, it is "staged" for the photo in a original spike hole.
One cool aritfact found at Sheridan Junction that was found off the shoulder of Hwy. 285 and where the mainline to Como intersects, was this slightly used link.
Sheridan Junction in 1941. Section House which was the former depot is at left,on (Old) Hampton Ave. Depot/scale house to right of C&S 70. Hwy. 285 bisects the foreground along with many fences. John W. Maxwell Photograph. Does anyone have any other Maxwell photo prints or other unpublished photos taken at Sheridan Junction?
