    The Railway Review ran similar pictures in its April 7, 1917 edition with this description: "Hospital Cars Canadian Pacific Ry The Canadian Pacific Ry two years ago prepared floor plans and interior arrangements for hospital cars for the benefit of the Canadian Military Hospitals Commission, although none were constructed at that time. More recently in an effort to provide the greatest possible comfort in the transportation of returned invalided soldiers, the Military Hospitals Commission sanctioned the building of six of these hospital cars fitted out on lines very similar to the original plans submitted, with however certain innovations found valuable by the French and British railways in transporting men from the front ."

    Thanks Richard Norton and Art Siegel. We'll add Canadian Pacific Railway to the description and update the date range.

    This photo ran in the Sunday Oregonian, May 20, 1917, SECTION FIVE, Image 64 with the caption: "To provide the greatest comfort for returned invalid soldiers of Canada, the Canadian Pacific has built hospital cars which have just gone into service. They are run in three units of two cars each. The cars consist of one large room the length of a standard sleeper, with lavatories at the ends. There are two side entrances for patients, which have curtains to be drawn in bad weather. The accommodations for the nurses are like those of a stateroom In a regular sleeper." oregonnews.uoregon.edu/lccn/sn83045782/1917-05-20/ed-1/se...

    Does Main Street go along the train tracks, or does it cross them? If Main crosses the tracks, are we facing the east side of Main?
