Yup -

Durango in the sixties was a wide open yard. Many a time on my way to or from college in Colo. Spgs. I would stop for dinner in Durango, and then wander down to the yard and climb up into the cab of a simmering engine to warm up and catch a few winks. The whirled has changed a lot in 55 years . . .
