C&S 71's short return to life
When our family took our first trip to Colorado in 1990 we just missed C&S running. It was parked at the time in the 'station' as shown at the end of this video. Little did I know that its boiler was cold for good. Seems like C&S revived engines don't last very long. 71 made it for two years and number 9 made it for one season. Bummer.
This video can be found on Youtube. It was filmed by someone in 1988.
