Look What I found In Barstow Today!

I hadn't known for sure that any of these still existed. Santa Fe originally built them for the drovers that used to accompany large cattle train movements, but they also used them for "Cabbages", I.E. Coach/Baggage/Caboose combinations on various branch line trains up until the mid 1950s.



Enjoy.
