For what its worth this photo looks doctored and the corset do not look believable. The siding of the engine house seems too faded and the green boiler seems like someone tried to hard to make it green. The red roof also looks a bit hokey. Folks will believe what you want but I have stacks of slides and I have this photo and this is not the original. End of the day of you model and want a green boiler do it but let's not fabricate and try and create things that may not be true. I will post some of my slides when I get back home from Durango, right now I have a date at Rockwood with the 481!
