Stock car and detail photos

These photos were taken in the early 1990's in Chama, New Mexico. Some of these photos can actually be used as scale drawings. The black and white painted carpenter's square in the photos has the black and white changing on the one foot marks. On the long end of the square, the black and white stripes are both one inch wide. On the short end of the square, the inside white stripe is 1/2" and the outside black strip is one inch.

This is stock car 5691. Most of the lettering has yet to be applied. It was undergoing restoration be the Friends of the C&TS at the time of this photo. The building in the left front is the Chama scale house.




These detail photos are from stock car 5717. I believe 5717 resides at the Colorado Railroad Museum in Golden, Colorado.
