Hello all!

Exciting news from Silverton, Colorado as the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad prepared ex-D&RGW locomotive #493 for a tow down to Durango today (Wednesday). The 493 will be trucked to Golden, Co in the coming weeks to begin a 10 year lease and rebuild of the locomotive. After 10 years is up at the Colorado Railroad Museum, the 493 will return to Durango operational and be used on trains between Durango and Silverton. I'm glad to see the 493 getting some much needed love!!

Best,

Kyle W. Colley
