Oh, and here's the story on the car, from the company's history book.
The passenger car we used for our ever-popular summertime outings to the Springs was purchased in 1935, being transported all the way from Maine. It was two foot in gauge, therefore, we had to modify it to operate on our trackage. Unfortunately, the excursions ceased in June of 1939 when a lawsuit was filed in the Karst County court against Stephens Stone & Cement. The contention of the claimant, seeking damages for contributory negligence, was the company should have provided more care in supervising the children playing near or in the Springs. The jury found that Stephens Stone & Cement did not imply, nor warrant, any safety in the trip, and could not be held liable in the injuries to the child, namely in that there was no consideration paid (train fare) for the trip. After the suit, we decided that we would no longer offer rides to passengers on our railway, and the car has sat in disuse on our property for over two years now.
