Did it show up new or used? It would appear to be older than 1911. When did its truck disappear and to where?
The interior arrangement is of a parlour car. Was it used for officials to tour the mines, and/or on the common carrier connection so that the "society" types would not have to ride with the "miner" types?
I think this will be an excellant addition to SVRR, I can't wait to see it when it's finished.
