The original operators did not develop the name or the hearld. I believe the herald was done by Ernie Robart. The herald and C&TS name were already in place when the first operator was selected.

The D&RGW was still functioning as a corporate entity and they could not keep the equipment lettered D&RGW. I think Ernie tried to develop something with the feel of the D&RGW in the 30s.
