In the basement of what is now the 1911 Steam Train Hotel in Antonito, is a store room that I given access to late in January. In this room was just pile after pile of paper filled boxes. My "guide" pointed out numerous previously (and still) unknown documents. One thick file was lots of memos drawings etc regarding the Chili Line Abandonment. He made special effort to show me plans, photos etc proving the abandonment was done as a "cover" for the secret base that was later built at the "boys school" (wink wink). One of the photos was the one posted by guymonmd at the head of this thread. I did not see any motive power photos, but my "guide" stated cars were pulled by the "students" at the "school," one of whom later became his father.
