Denver Tramway ( 3'6" ) Work Motor 723 Being Sold

So it's not our usual narrow gauge, but it is Colorado narrow gauge (3'6"), and in the spirit of getting the word out to folks who might preserve it...

The rest of the equipment at Bob Thain's place is being sold at auction tomorrow out in Strasburg, CO. Included in that is the carbody of Denver Tramway work motor 723 which has been stored in a barn for years. The car is actually in remarkably good shape. No trucks, and the electrical gear is largely gone, but the carbody itself is structurally sound (or was the last I inspected it).

Thain Auction - June 5

A few pictures of the car in the barn back in 2014, the first one with Bob waiting on the rest of us to get done taking pictures.
