| Post subject: | RGS 42 at Magic Mountain |
Former Rio Grande Southern 2-8-0 42 when running at Magic Mountain, a western tourist trap near Golden, Colo. in the late-1950s. Engine was converted to burn oil. Magic Mountain, which went bust about 1960, was closed for a time and is now known as Heritage Square. It has since had a two-foot operation and lastly a 15-inch gauge setup. No. 42 is in the roundhouse at Durango and the cars have gone to the Georgetown Loop. http://home.att.net/~pipix/dplpix11/00012570a.jpg ryarger@rypn.org |

Still in service. I think they were once C&S boxcars or reefers. http://abpr2.railfan.net/abprphoto.cgi?july03/07-15-03/GLRR40_20030607_GeorgetownCO_bf03.jpg ryarger@rypn.org |
