Brakeman giving hand signal preparing to stop opposite blocks of ice on platform.
Another brakeman is about to get off to help load ice for their drinking water in van.
Likewise, blocks of ice go in a special compartment on steam engine tender and a
galvanized water pail sits on top of ice blocks. They better hurry up. Looks like that
engine is fast approaching on track between them! They may want ice too!
