The various photos of number 207 on the Chili Line (
Otowi &
Chama River bridge) made me curious about this little C-16.
Has anyone explored her history?
Most of the photos I’ve seen are ‘less than optimal’ so I checked the Friends photo collection to see if they had any nicer shots. I was thrilled to find clear photos of both the
engineer’s side and the
fireman’s side, but they are undated. Does anyone know when they were taken?
I also found a nice clear photo of
her tender in the scrap line. Did she have her tender swapped? Or was it pulled out of the scrap line and refurbished?
Did she wear a box headlight until she was scrapped?
What else do you know about her?
Thx...
