At Colorado RR Museum. Goose 7 participated in the scrapping of several D&RGW NG lines in Colorado. Pierce Arrow body, and I think, a flathead Ford engine.http://naphotos.nerail.org/showpic/?pho ... e%3A54Also diesel 50 under repair. Originally came from the Sumpter Valley, bought by the D&RGW in the early 1960s for a switcher at Durango. Gears were later stripped when it ran away on the Roaring Camp & Big Trees in California. A much-traveled machine:http://naphotos.nerail.org/showpic/?photo=200507051320581470.jpg&bydate%3A55And 2-8-0 346 still under repair after return from Strasburg. It too was once the Durango switcher:http://naphotos.nerail.org/showpic/?photo=200507051319372656.jpg&bydate%3A55Looks like they have acquired the hulk of a GP30 also:http://naphotos.nerail.org/showpic/?photo=2005070513131713111.jpg&bydate%3A56And ex-IRCA 40, now lettered Royal Gorge instead of Georgetown Loop:http://naphotos.nerail.org/showpic/?photo=2005070511540828606.jpg&bydate%3A57And on the turntable, a 78-footer from the end of the CB&Q branch at St. Francis, Kansas, where it once turned 2-8-2s and 4-4-2s on local freights.http://naphotos.nerail.org/showpic/?pho ... te%3A59The roundhouse, styled after some 1880s D&RGW structures:http://naphotos.nerail.org/showpic/?photo=2005070511202632224.jpg&bydate%3A61
