A Ghost Town and Calico Railroad train trails black smoke past a water tower lettered "GHOST T" while a red stagecoach with a four-horse team and mounted riders pulls alongside, and a crowd of visitors in short sleeves and summer dresses watches from the dirt yard. The back carries a pre-printed message in mock handwriting about the narrow-gauge train, "formerly noted as the Denver Rio Grande," and two hold-up men who "nearly scared the wits out of the passengers." (front of the card)
