Glad you had a 'Grande time' along the D&RGW! Sweet angle on the Gypsum, CO, image.

DRGW SD45 in photo #2 is rare because you caught it when it had a Nathan M-5. A rare horn to be found on a Rio Grande locomotive.I have a color print of it somewhere around here.

Denver, the first order of SW1000's were assigned to Denver and stayed there their entire careers.
The second order of SW1000's went to Utah (Provo and SLC).
