Thanks Ron. Yes, The Q&TLRR was only 6 miles long, hauling copper rock to the stamp mill and bringing coal back to feed the boilers for the huge hoisting engines at the mine. In their 57 years of operation (1888 - 1945) they operated with 4 Brooks Moguls, a used Baldwin Consolidation and #6. Their entire rolling stock consisted of about 140 rock cars, 4 cabooses, several flat cars, a plow, and a flanger. It is an interesting part of the country.
