Winder Transportation Systems gave the Rohr factory in Chula Vista as their address. They filed themselves into existence on 11/08/1972. Their existence seemed to end on 04/10/1979.
According to a 1972 edition of Rohr News, this had been a nacelle factory from 1958 to the mid-1970s. They made nacelles for the Lockheed Aircraft Company's C-130 program. It switched to transit vehicle production about 1972.
The terrain in the photo is flat and all of the cars are missing front license plates. The text says WMATA. This was in the U.S. state of Georgia per the 1975 Rohr annual report.
You're shaking your head? "Chuck, you messed up!" you say? Please add a comment to correct anything that is not accurate or to amplify on a subject.
Add a tag. I double dare you.

I think this is a signal mockup to tell the train operator if the switch they're approaching is aligned as the operator expects?
