I have been looking for a picture of D&RGW 485 actually in the Salida turntable pit where it met its end on December 7, 1953. Does anyone know if a picture of this unfortunate event exist on the web or in publication. I have seen two other photos that were taken after the event but the engine is out of the pit and sitting on a track by itself. What a mess.

Thanks for any info that can be shed on this. I have been looking for a picture for some time now.

Daniel
