[Transcription of the handwritten questions:] Questions Was express trail car #616 involved in a wreck at the time it was abandoned, or was this abandonment merely the result of its unwieldy length and its dilapidated condition? At what date was express trail car #616 abandoned? Were passenger coach trail cars #401, #403 and 406 burned deliberately, or was their destruction the result of the accidental burning of the Woodlake car barn?
