"100_3506.jpg" - image/jpeg, 1600x1200 (24bit)

Attached are a few pictures from the Stilwell at the R&GV RR Musem.

I cleaned up one of the loose windows, and 3503 and 3504 show some details
of the "Gothic" pattern in the window.

3505 shows a "blanked" window area. I don't recall whether this one was
blanked for the M of W conversion, or perhaps previously. About 1/3 of the
windows were completely blanked by sheet steel, and the R&GV had done some
fairly extensive re-creation of the coach-style windows, by cutting away the
steel panels from the M of W rebuild and building window sashes and tracks
from scratch..

Perhaps most interesting, is 3506, showing an original arch window still in
place. On the interior, this would have been completely covered by solid
fiber board panel. Also note that even if the wall panel were not there,
the sliding window sash, and its "track", block a substantial portion of the
arch window itself (the window sash is in the fully down position here, and
the top rail blocks some of the arch window). It's unclear to me whether
these arched windows ever served any useful function, since they were so
thoroughly covered by all of this stuff.
