Guys,
This is what I remember from about 30 years ago about a 28 on the RGS, the person that told me worked for the D&RGW at one time and lived in the Durango area don"t remember his name, he was in his 70's at the time.Don't remember much about the story but he said that a 28 left Durango went only a few miles and derailed the trailing truck, once rerailed went a bit further and derailed again after rerailing the truck they went back to Durango, thats what I remember, I was in my mid 30's at the time memory ani't what it used to be.
