RGS had 19 of the class 60 engines. RGS 1-10, 12, 13, 15-21 (orig D&RG 242-256, 258-261).
#'s 1,4, 5, 7-9 dismantled 1904
#'s 2, 13, 18-21 retired 1916, dismantled (18, 19, 21 not dimantled until '24)
The rest were retired in '26-'27
#6 was at Alamosa to be shopped at the time, sat on the dead line until'38 when she was scrapped.
#'s 3, 10, 12, 15-17 were stored at Durango and used as part sources. In about 1930 they were moved from D&RGW yard to West Durango on the RGS where they rotted away until '42 when they were scrapped.
