Rosie's Den Roadhouse, Willow Beach
Title:  Rosie's Den Roadhouse, Willow Beach
Description:  This is located between Kingman AZ and Boulder City NV on the I93, just north of Dolan Springs. The loco looks to be home made with a car or truck engine as power. However it is very professionally done. I would be very interested to find out about its history. There is also a homemade caboose just out of the photo. Its all 30' gauge.
