November 1947.  Aurora, California.

Details of the end hood are revealed.  The thin wooden frame that is the original flat car body is very evident, as is the end of the truss rod.  The multi-piece mounts for the bell and headlight attest to their recycled nature.  The triangular item on the walkway is a rerailing frog.
