.......... but I like it.
Following is a list of the consignee and shippers from May 14 1910 by car number. Thought it was interesting. This merchandise had been (for the most part) off loaded from the D&RG at Mack, Colorado, transported to Dragon, Utah on the Uintah, and then was going to be wagon frieghted to these various locations by the Uintah on their toll road system........ still pretty much a wide open western frontier ( just like today, alot of mail order.....) I included as many details as I deemed interesting, and alot of it was un readable hand writting, and I've done the best I can to translate, some names are a guess.
