|
K-27s plus the more modern engines. Abandoned ROW, cars, buildings. Geese, WP&Y tanks, OY, CRRM. |

There are quite a few duplicates and some are merely xerographic copies of other pictures and as such are half-tones. |
|
Some very nice pictures are here though. |
|
Miscellaneous Modern |
|
A hodgepodge of color photos, probably taken by Dorman showing various scenes from the C&TS including Goose |
|
#5 events, tank cars arriving at Alamosa, some pics of #463 and several outings on the line. Dick's Dolores depot |
|
reconstruction is represented by several shots and visits to the Golden and Sacramento museums are included. |
|
There are some photos of RGS artifacts and town detail shots along the line. Some various standard gauge photos |
|
are here as well. |

This gallery covers the entire RGS line from Ridgway to Durango, showing almost all of its structures, equipment |
|
and scenes along the line over an extended time frame. There is a drawing of Plow-Flanger #02 and photos of RGS |

silver passes, as well as a couple of maps and some timetable extracts. |
