Great photo, Chris, looks to be about 1915-1918, the Leadville passenger almost home to Denver.

Thanks so much for sharing.

Interesting that someone felt compelled to whitewash even the RR's
telegraph poles within the compound.  I'd like to see how the white-
-washing was detailed in up top.

The Waterton reservoir liked whitewash:

I think Chris's photo includes the little structure with the conical roof and white door.

They must have had extra white wash to spare, as the power poles haven't been done yet . . .

Looks like they ran out of white wash in Chris' photo with the first pole in the distance.
