Take a look on photo LC-B2-2374-9 "Argumedo's force halt refugee train at Torreón" of your collection, and compare hand writting. If a perpendicular line is traced on the shadows you'll get Nort-South direction. So, locomotive is traveling West-East, probably American Refugee coming fron Asarco [American Smelting and Refining Co.] (Velardeña) stopping by Avilés (currently Ciudad Juárez, Durango) separated from Torreón just by Cerro del Huarache. Throurgh that rail used to travel International Mexican Railroad (settled on 1888) from Ciudad Porfirio Díaz (currently Piedras Negras, Coahuila-Eagle Pass, Texas) to Durango City. Some refugees went all the way through and others arriving at Torreón changed to Central Mexican Railroad (Mexico City to Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua-El Paso, Texas). Dr. Roberto Duarte
