… Hundreds gathered for trip in white dresses & carrying cloth bags, pails, candles going to inaccessible oldest & most venerable religious festival of Tres Reyes ... Train started at 7 A.M. with a hundred in a box car, people hanging on steps of platform even engine went off tracks like some great sad silent dead horse of iron at noon, usual occurrence. (see Journals Early Fifties, N.Y., Grove, 1977, 1992 p. 37). Narrow-gauge railroad, Merida to Valladolid, Quintana Roo, Mexico, January 1954.
