A little Durango history needed

January 23, 2010 08:45PM avatar
I just read the book "Three Little Lines" by Joise Moore Crumb. This is a softbound book published in 1960 by the Durango Herald. This is a GREAT book on the three other railroads out of Silverton. The back of the book has great pictures of engines, mines and a great map that folds out.

Heres what I would like to know more about. The following is from the book.....
" One of the original S.G.& N. coaches was bought from the S.N., moved to Durango and set up on Main Avenue as the "Pioneer Diner". Later, after changes and additions, it became the "Chief Diner". It is still operating and may be seen in Durango."

Anyone out there know about this? I am guessing the place may be long gone by now, but, anyone got any pictures of the place? How much of the coach was retained when set up as a Diner?

Thanks
