SBD 1816         
Rounding a curve at speed on a southbound train, the engineer discovered the switch to this propane distributor was left open. Fortunately, the local that serviced this spur was making a pick-up and hadn't left a full propane tank here. The lead unit is dug into the sand over the front coupler. Date approximate.
