Wanted: Photo of the engine house of BC&F which burned down just after the RGS began operating the private line and their engine became subject to regular use by the RGS and serviced at Durango.

The chapter has aerial photos and operating records of the leased line and nearly everything you need to know about the railroad researched by W. George Cook. Part of the line was rebuilt after its abandonment to reach a new mine a mile up from the junction.
