Re: Water Tower at Willow Creek Siding

Hello Guys,
Thank you for your input, I have this drawing of the Willow Creek siding dated January 1, 1889 which shows a "Tank" Coal House, Section House, and Bunk House. you think these would have carried over from the orginal plans when the San Juan extension was first built, or maybe it was planned on building a water tank there?

We have witnessed valley
and plain and crest,
Canon and pass we've scanned;
We have seen the best
of the glorious West,
by the trail of the Rio Grande
