Charlie Pressler was the engineer on the 60, Jack Hartman on the 59. Pressler also was the engineer on the last narrow gauge engine to operate in common carrier service in the Cripple Creek District so an argument could be made that he ran the last trains of both the Midland terminal and the Florence & Cripple Creek railroads.
The F&CC ran switching service in the District after the main line was washed out.
One company owned all three railroads.
