Two views of C&S 74 - 1991 & 2003

I finally got around to scanning some old photos of mine,  I found photos of two different visits to C&S 74 when she was on display in Boulder.  The first three photos are from 1991 where the consolidation's tender is carrying the emblem of its first railroad, the Colorado and Northwestern where it carried the number 30.  The engine was placed here in 1952 through the work of Dr. John B. Schoolland, who got it from the Rio Grande Southern, on a piece of track near the former site of the depot and facing the mountains she once traversed.  

The chain fence is quite light surrounding the train at this time.

The next two photos are from a 2003 visit.  Some construction work was going on at the time as evidenced by the plastic fencing.  The tender has also been labeled for the engine's second owner, the Denver, Boulder & Western which was a reorganization of the C&N line.   The coach appears to be gone.  I don't know the story behind that.  You can also see that much more substantial fencing has been added around the train.  It was this year that the tender was sent away for operational restoration and then returned to the park.  I don't know when the work corresponds with this photo.  The tender was eventually used behind C&S No. 9 on its one season use at the Georgetown Loop in 2006.

The engine is presently on loan to and displayed at The Colorado Railroad Museum in Golden.
