Age. Pleistocene.
General Description. Railroad cut at or near Mastodon Station (railroad service station).
Discussion. Reportedly, the American Mastodont (Mammut americanum) and horse (identified as Equus complicatus by Gidley), were recovered (Hay 1924). However, the mastodont was identified by skeletal elements only; in view of geological situation, it seems most likely that the remains represented gomphothere.
