thanks much Louis...That picture pretty well describes the situation which I alluded to in my response. It might be a bit exaggerated, but it surely answers the question as to "what passengers are doing on a train carrying stock.

Pete - I have some very faint memories of when my Dad was a train master on Lines West and him talking about the "problems" with the drovers during stock movement season. I'm attaching an image that graphically shows just what the train crews could be up against with a drovers coach coupled on ahead of their way car:
Unfortunately, this isn't a Q photograph, but instead one of a Santa Fe stock extra taken on some long forgotten day at Lubbock, TX. But, this was not a unique situation at all and could be found at most load out points on all the Granger Roads that served Cattle County.
Pity the poor rear end train crew...... Wonder how they got all the drunken cow boys out of their caboose when it came time to whistle off? Anyway, all the cow boys have finished loading their cattle, have been paid off and are now "more than ready" to go visit the Big City - Louis
