The one in the back right corner folds like the one that was in the hallway. Having been in here for years probably accounts for how good it looks. I'll bet there was a cot exchange program with the funeral homes so the body did not have to be moved so many times. That narrower type fit on a rail in the back of the old fashioned station wagon type vehicles. It could be locked and used for transport of a body or as an emergency transport vehicle.
