In the picture you have I believe the Stardust was closed because the Stardust’s owner at the time was in Legal trouble that suspended the license. Nevada does have certain standards. The Green Lantern in the neighborhood reportedly had a sign on the door that said “Closed, Beat It” but I never saw it. In this picture you see the caboose 6 is not on the train due to some people’s concern about the weight and strain on the locomotive. Out of sight of the picture is an area where the Girls could sun themselves that was quite visible from the train. Believe it or not 40 is about ready to go over a private crossing.
