I am looking at a photo of 0577 at Montrose April 1952. It shows the single window side of the car lettered DENVER & WESTERN RIO GRANDE. And the question is what is the other side lettered? The closest photo of the other side is also at Montrose in 1945.Looking at the two photos I don`t think the car was repainted between 1945 and 1952 so where or when did the muck up happen, at the original lettering or a fix up along the way?

These photos can be seen in Narrow Gauge Pictorial Vol V by Grant.

Bill.
