| Post subject: | French Gulch tank |
On the Leadville, Colorado & Southern tourist RR in Colorado. It was last used by C&S 2-8-0 641 in 1962. When the line was converted from narrow gauge to standard in 1943, the tank was moved across the track to better fit the standard gauge tenders. The LC&S facilities have much potential as an authentic historic site, but not much being done toward that goal. http://abpr.railfan.net/abprphoto.cgi?o ... lle_CO.jpg This photo on one of the last narrow gauge runs in the summer of 1943: http://photoswest.org/cgi-bin/imager?00006360+OP-6360 |
