While working in Colorado I was driving a mountainous route and found a random bridge span at the side of the road in a gorge. i think it was a span stood on its own, no route on it from either side. In the middle was an american steam locomotive with a tarpaulin over it, marooned. I never did find out the story. I'll try to find it. Bit of digging, it's the Cimarron Canyon Rail Exhibit on what's left of the Denver & Rio Grande (D&RG) Narrow Gauge Railroad. This stretch went from Gunnison via Cimmaron to Montrose. |

And, if anyone wants to see what the back of a boxpok wheel casting looks like:
It's in front of a block of flats, on what was part of the Canadian Locomotive Companies' land; CLC built and exported locomotives all over the world; there's at least one in running condition somewhere in France/Switzerland (ex. SNCF141Rs were built in Montreal, Kingston ON, and somewhere else in the USA) Now, why they had to mount it with the back facing up escapes me, they look better outside side out, in my opinion! We I can definitely say we have bigger and better potholes in our roads here in the UK

Neil If you look immediately north of the telescope you can see a hedge planted in a spiral to commemorate it. The castle still has a museum which also covers photography, by and the invention of the turbine |
