The only turntables that would have been a limitation for the proposed 4-8-2s were at Chama and Durango.
Alamosa got a 100-foot turntable from Minturn in May, 1929.
Chama got a second hand 65-foot turntable in October 1925.
Durango got the 65-foot turntable from Alamosa in March, 1924.
Salida had a 100-foot turntable.
Gunnison got an 80-foot turntable in October 1926.
Marshall Pass had a 67-foot turntable.
