Ah, #206. She seems to appear in more than her share of period pictures for some reason. She was also one of the last of the few C-16's to survive into the 1930's, not being scrapped until May of 1936. Oddly enough, given her earlier exposure, I've not seen any photos of her in the 1930's. I assume she was in the Alamosa dead-line, must have been on one of the harder tracks to get a good angle/light for a photo? All of this makes me wonder if she was a favorite engine back in the day?
