C&S #60
| April 03, 2012 07:28PM |
This is a unique engine because it was built by the relatively obscure Rhode Island Locomotive Works, and is one of the few survining locomtives of the legendary Clear Creek line of the C&S. I am concerned about its condition after taking a close look on March 31 in Idaho Springs, CO. For instance, the steam chest on the fireman's side is split open and disgorging a menacing looking substance that could be a health risk if handled. And with that wooden deck the engine is shackled by, I would not doubt someone tries climbing all over her.
