You mean, like this? https://www.therailwire.net/forum/index.php?topic=47150.msg619838#msg619838  ;)

Yep, one in a million of 'em all over the midwest and east.  Just was such a simple search to try to find many examples.

Wife says I bought you the ultimate birthday gift for next month. I said is it The Grand Canyon Railroad excursion from Williams to Grand Canyon Village and she says...um-mm...Yes...How did you know. Never F with a train freak. I have been a fan of that line from Williams Junction to the depot in the village since I was a kid. In 1970 visiting my aunt who was living there, I saw the freight station door slightly ajar. I found a desk, cobwebs and more loaded with AT&Sf stationary. The old logo in black on gold paper and envelopes. Yes I did take some and some timetables.

Oh man, I'm jealous!  You better take a ton of photos to document your trip.  And we all want to see them!  :D

I have no idea what you are referring to but your door ajar stationary story made me super excited and now I want to go. That’s like finding a secret entrance to a time warp. So cool. I would have taken a couple of papers too. Haha.

Enjoy the train trip.  The wife and I stopped in Williams in September as part of our trip to the Grand Canyon.  She wanted to check out old Rt 66 and I got to walk around and see some train stuff.  Neat little town.
