Description

W. O. Ash is an assistant yardmaster for the Texas Pacific Railway. He has spent more than thirty years on the job and has never once been late to work. Credit for the streak goes to his trusty timepiece. The pocket watch was once owned by Mr. Ash's brother, who lost his life in a railroad accident. Mr. Ash is shown sitting on a chair, dressed in a double breasted, pinstripe suit.
