From E.R., Dunsmuir, Chicago, junta hasta Roseville, we layed cold steel rails and sweated at the round house, journ[ey]ing long. Singing a song in search of El Dorado - only to retire and be swept away lost or forgotten by company policy now upheld by your sons and daughters. Trabajadores compañeros les saludo."
