Hi John et al -
While doing some "Then and Now" research for Mr. Rattray at the request of Mr. Forney,
I came across a scan of a slide that Mr. Robart had sent me several years ago. It shows
one of the first C&TS "Hospital Trains" hauling equipment from Antonito to Chama in Sept-
ember, 1970, and not just one but several telegraphone poles running southeast from Osier:

aka Der Grossväterlich DünkelOlivGrünDampfKesselMantelLiebHabender
