Gents: happy to comply. Here are the other three prints, made from 5x7 glass plates, showing the reconstruction of the Alder Springs Trestle. I can identify four of the ex-Utah & Northern Work Cars (with UP style white painted facias): 013, 023, 024. (015 and others show-up in the view with SV's steam shovel.) Note the rails dangeling in mid air in the first two shots.
I do not know when the Alder Springs Trestle burned, but the glass plates from which these prints were made came with some others dated in c.1914-15. More information/facts would be appreciated.
