Though not in Ft. Smith, this MV shot at Panama, OK was taken in Aug. '62 and shows the engineer standing at the end of the unit. Muskogee Road geeps were dual control. By the way the engineer was my Uncle Richard Skinner. Note that the gate is turned against the KCS main line and the back of the joint station. |
