Thanks Dave, for a wonderful find. It is most interesting to see D&RG #6 "Ute" still in service on what looks like a passenger consists. The line south from Antonito was constructed in 1880 and reached Espanola on December 31st that year. Here construction stopped due to the Tri-Partate Agreement, which kept the Rio Grande from building any further south. The "Ute" was leased to several different narrow gauge lines after 1881. So, this photo was probably made in 1881.
