Ah yes you did have some interesting graffiti from disgruntled SP trainmen Sad those dirty Western Banditos in Portola didn't take the time to document it. But little did they know a curse was unleashed by the SP gods against the infidels, the very day they stripped the last bit of Iron flesh from you. Praise be thy Stanford, Huntington, Crocker, Hopkins. Stanford, Huntington, Crocker, Hopkins above all.

As for me... Schellville has become a sort of purgatory a Japanese death camp, slowly stripped of my precious copper. Although The frequent custom paintings by the locals has somewhat preserved me from further decay. It is so cold and damp here. I wish someone would rescue me.
