Fair's book is an excellent reference.

 

What was the operations process when Ozarka was headquartered in the former Eureka Springs depot?

Was there a transloading process from spring to truck to train?

What was the timeframe for Ozarka's activity in Eureka Springs?

Was that only during the A&O era?

Thanks for posting all the Ozarka freight cars, most of those views were "new" to me.

In my research I have found a site hosting the E. G. Baker Collection, with pictures of the Frisco, M&A, and the A&O.

A real treat of a collection.
