The Colorado Railroad Museum had a party today for the 346, since it was returned to service today. This is a 3 foot gauge Baldwin Engine from 7-1881. It was built as DRG 5712, then to DRG 406, named "Cumbres". It was then renumbered DRGW 346 in 1924 as a Class C-19 engine before being sold to Montezuma Lumber Co. in 5-1947, purchased by Robert W. Richardson 7-1950. It was first steamed up by CRRM on 7-29-1962. |
