| Description: |
Nice original color slide by an unknown photographer of Denver & Rio Grande Western business car marked "K". Not sure what it was later numbered - can't find much info about it. With Wil Hata's help (see comment below), this car has been identified as a narrow guage business car. Much appreciate the help with this one, Wil!!! |

CBQ 4-8-4 #5629 - Chicago, Burlington & Quincy |
| Description: |
We were impressed by the massive CBQ 4-8-4 #5629. Wish it had been in the sunwhen I took the photo! The largest steam engine at the Museum, CB&Q No. 5629 was built in 1940 by the Burlington Route Railroad in their own shops and was used for heavy freight and passenger service. It remained in service until the early 1960s, when it was purchased by the Intermountain Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society and moved to the Colorado Railroad Museum in 1963. No. 5629 is one of only four Burlington locomotives of its type still in existence. |

CS RPO #254 - Colorado & Southern |
| Description: |
Here's an interior view of the Colorado & Southern RPO car #254 at the museum.My exterior view was a poor quality photo so not posted. C&S Railway ordered five postal cars, including No. 254, in the 1920s from the Standard Steel Car Company and AC&F to replace older wooden cars. These included a section for baggage and express mail as well as a compartment for use of the postal service.The new cars operated on the Billings & Denver and Denver & Amarillo RPO routes until these were discontinued in 1967. |

| Description: |
Shame I was on the "dark side" of this interurban car. At the time we were there, it was in excellent shape. The Denver & Intermountain #25t was built by the Woeber Car Company and entered service in 1911 in Denver, Colorado. The car was retired in 1950 and is now owned by the West Corridor Historical Rail Cooperative but housed at the museum. |

DRG 2-8-0 #583 - Denver & Rio Grande |
| Description: |
We watched some visiting children playing on the once proud Denver & Rio Grande 2-8-0 ten wheeler #583. The locomotive was originally built by Baldwin Locomotive Works as D&RG 583 (Class 113) in September 1890. In 1962, the Colorado Railroad Museum acquired the locomotive and restored it to its original D&RG 583 appearance. |

CS Snowplow #99201- Colorado & Southern |
| Description: |
Again, I was on the "dark side" of the CS snowplow #99201 when I took the photo. I did wise up on taking better pictures after seeing these. This C&S rotary snowplow operated over a number of Colorado mountain lines from 1899 until 1965. Large spinning blades on the front threw snow high and far to either side of the track, clearing the way for trains. Power to spin the rotary blades was generated by a steam engine located in the plow. The plow cannot move itself and must be pushed by locomotives. It was donated to the Museum in October of 1972. |

FCMR Trolley #22 - Fort Collins Municipal Rwy |
| Description: |
My wife checks out the Fort Collins Municipal Rwy trolley #22 while we were there. The car was built for use in Fort Collins, Colorado, by the American Car Company of St. Louis in 1919 and was used until 1951, when the streetcar service in Fort Collins was abandoned. It is a type of streetcar known as a Birney "Safety Car". The Rocky Mountain Railroad Club purchased it in 1953 and moved it to Denver.[2] After five years in storage, car 22 was moved to the Colorado Railroad Museum in 1958[2] and put on display there. |

LATL PCC #3101 - Los Angeles Transit Lines |
| Description: |
We were a little confused why a Los Angeles PCC was doing at the Colorado RR Museum. We didn't know about the slim connection to Colorado until we got home. This car was built in 1943 for the Los Angeles Railway and after it was retired from that line it was moved to Cripple Creek, CO. It ran there for a short time on a tourist operation with about 900 feet of track. |

On our first visit to the Colorado RR Museum, we found "Lulu Belle". Sitting by itself near the front of the museum. Of course, i wish I had moved to the sun side. On our visit in 1982, I finally did! Originally built by Alco-Cooke in 1920 as Standard Oil 0-4-0T #1 (serial #62754), it eventually ended up at the Colorado RR Museum as their CRRM 0-4-0 #1 nicknamed "Lulu Belle". |

| Description: |
My wife had to check out the little switcher who started out as a Standard Oil yard goat in 1920. After this trip, I did get better about trying to be on the "sun side" of the photograph! |

RGS 4-6-0ng #20 - Rio Grande Southern |
| Description: |
Tucked to the side of the display area at the Museum was RGW 4-6-0ng #20. I almost had the sun in the right spot! Rio Grande Western 4-6-0 #20, also known as Rio Grande Southern #20, is a historic narrow-gauge steam locomotive that is now part of the collection at the Colorado Railroad Museum in Golden, Colorado. It was built in 1899 by the Schenectady Locomotive Works for the Florence & Cripple Creek Railroad and later operated on the Rio Grande Southern Railroad (RGS) until 1951. After years of service, #20 was acquired by the Colorado Railroad Museum and underwent a 14-year restoration project costing over $1.5 million. |

CBQ 4-8-4 #5629 |
| Description: |
Built in West Burlington, Iowa in June 1940, No. 5629 was one of 15 engines—numbered 5621 to 5635—that constituted the last new class of steam locomotives. Designed for fast freight and heavy passenger service, No. 5629 began its career on the Chicago to Denver mainline. It was transferred to the Twin Cities in the mid-1940s and made its way back west in 1950, hauling freight between Lincoln, Nebraska and Denver, Colorado. After being converted from burning coal to oil, it was stored in Lincoln and served as a stationary boiler, providing heat to the Lincoln station during a renovation in the winter of 1961. On August 30, 1963, CB&Q Vice President J.J. Alms presented No. 5629 to the Colorado Railroad Museum Rail fan Jim Lockart took this color slide on one of his trips to the museum. |
