Neg only (Ferington description)
There should be one negative per file. There are eight here. So I am splitting these up and making eight files. This file depicts the upper end of the Jamestown Yard. I think the track is the mainline to Sonora and beyond. To the left we have a caboose connected with another crew carrier (caboose). Both appear to be in fair condition. We next have a caboose, a side dump gravel car and a flat car. The flat car is interesting in that it is set up to be a tank car. There is a series of cradles across the car that would hold a tank of some size. I would say that all three are in fair condition. Near the right edge of the photo are three or four old passenger cars (short versions) being used for offices or warehouses of some sort. There are three vintages of cars represented. I assume they are not on tracks but they might be. I can't tell if the wheelsets were pulled. Again the day is heavily overcast as are the others in this group (Rutty description)
