[CBQ] Very early freight car found today, and unknown surviving UP depot

[MICHAEL PANNELL <michael.pannell@btinternet.com>]

Amazing afternoon, following a lead with the usual suspicion about a depot 
'existing'.  We went out this afternoon and found Carr CO UP/possibly DP depot, 
half in use as house and the other half still left where it was delivered 40 or 
more years ago.

What was even better was the freight car next to it, a 1800's UP car still with 
readable arched lettering proclaiming UNION PACIFIC RAILWAY !  That puts it 
immediately pre 1896.  Cant wait to see if we can the other side, but it has 
the 
last two digits of a car number 50, and something under the second UP that i 
havent yet decifered

Amazing afternoon, and the depot and car have to be saved, no question about 
it.....
