[0d] [0a] [0d] [0a] Written on the back by Forrest Johannson: "When Joe Cook and friends started mining one year the gas car only ran to Silverton. Joe went to Monte and got a one lung Buda flat car (speeder) out of the tool shed for the railroad. Down where Twin Bridges are between Monte and Barlow Pass some of the pilings were gone (he couldn't get anyone to ride with him). When he drove it across the trestle he could feel the rails sag and twist. He didn't think anything of it."- per David Cameron, 2005, Granite Falls Historical Society,Photos,Museum Collection,General Photos,General Photos 12,Print, Photographic (2006.34.150),Print, Photographic (2006.34.150) 1, Print, Photographic (2006.34.150) 1
