If you are modeling CONX 5 circa 1929 you should note that the frame was replaced with a C&S frame after it was wrecked in 1934. the old frame was probably like this one on CONX 6.
Or this one on CONX 19
[cdm16079.contentdm.oclc.org]
I would question the use of CONX 5, 8, 19, or 35 on the D&RGW after the third rail was removed between Leadville and Salida in 1925 however.
