Ahead toward the Round house....
I think the old 6-volt VW bug belonged to Bernie Watts. Note the reefer body "watchman's" house is missing. Back then it was down behind the roundhouse along with a couple of other carbodies that had been one time been used as overnight lodging for enginemen who overnighted in Chama. Also note, the lack of tracks running up to the engine shop, which was still a few years in the future.
...and into the house for a couple of days rest before another adventure across Cumbres...
The End.
