Lester Lawrence, Chanute Santa Fe trainmaster took the time clock out of the depot, when it was shut down, according to local historian Charles Sesher. Santa Fe sent two men down to move the clock for Lawrence. I'm possibly the third owner since purchased from a Santa Fe collector in 1999. With 'Santa Fe' printed across its face, there's a stamping AT&SFE inside the base, along with a sticker I couldn't decipher. I had it packed ever since I moved a month later.
