601 W. Franklin Avenue Williams, AZ , 86046 Phone: 1 928 635 4224 Website 2/20/23 - Talked to the front desk person and she said that the machine got taken away yesterday and probably won’t be back. She also said that the guy in charge of the penny presses is retiring soon, and not sure if anyone will take over in the future.
The Grand Canyon Railway RV Park is easy to get to from Interstate 40 as you enter Williams. Simply get off Interstate 40 at Exit 163. Go south on Grand Canyon Blvd. about 1/2 mile. Go west (right) on Franklin Ave. (You’ll drive by the Grand Canyon Railway Hotel.) Look to make a left turn at the convenience store, which also serves as the RV Park check-in. The convenience store sits at the corner of Franklin Ave. & 7th Ave.
The machine is conveniently located in the foyer of the office and the friendly staff will be happy to help. These are Jim Dundon designs on this machine, which was recently moved from the Grand Canyon Railway Depot.
The machine is on the left near the restrooms. Designs are:
1. (H) 'Grand Canyon National Park Est. 1919', Grand Canyon,
2. (V) 'Grand Canyon Rattlesnake Crotalus Abyssus', A coiled Grand Canyon pink rattlesnake,
3. (V) 'Arizona Route 66 The Mother Road Williams'.U.S. Highway road sign.
4. (H) 'Grand Canyon Railway & Resort', Logo showing the first Grand Canyon Railway Steam Locomotive # 4960 emerging from the canyon with a steam engine in the middle. (This design is an obsolete copy of the Original Grand Canyon Railroad logo and is quite a collector's item)
