Here are a few more, Dutch -

Taken June 3rd, 1960, when #476 pulled an excursion from Alamosa to Durango and then
the next day from Durango to Silverton & back. #483 pulled the excursion back to Alamosa
on June 5th. I presume that #476 had spent the winter being serviced in Alamosa, although
back in those days there was still a lot of freight going to Farmington so she might even have
been "earning her keep" during her time off from the Silverton train.

At the Red Devil Loader in Alamosa:

Getting a drink a few minutes later (note the hostler's cee-gar):

Thirsty again, this time in Antonito:

A photo run-by on the original hill east of Arboles:
