- Description
-
This postcard shows a stationary train engine, four adults, and three children. The engine appears to be carrying wood. The postcard was postmarked from Indian Rock on March 16, 1910 by Grayden Hendricks, who ran a Dinkey Engine transporting logs from the North Creek area to the Sawmill in Arcadia.
From approximately 1905 to 1920, it was popular to develop your pictures into postcards, so it is possible this is a unique postcard.
There was a limestone quarry in Indian Rock that used a train that ran between the quarries and plant, but the postcard does not indicate if this train is related. - Contributor
