Picture 19.3-6.

One of the motor cars picks its way through the town of Mandeville.  The card is postmarked Aug. 2, 1910, so it must represent very early operation of the line.  Note the light track with very little ballast.  By the time patronage declined in the late 'teens, the track was greatly in need of maintenance and rebuilding that the company could no longer afford. — Collection of the author
