Earl should have the numbers. I know of at least two tanks between La Veta and Alamosa: at Sierra and east of Fort Garland. Earl said most of the Sierra system still exists.
There probably was one at La Veta as well since it was a crew-change point until 1973.
The tank holds 10,000 gallons, 4,000 gallons more than the K37s.
