This Harrison photo appears to have been taken at Durnago, Co. on the DRGW narrow gauge, likely in the late 1960's. This is "Kitchen and Diner Car" #0270. From a search of the internet, I find that it was converted from coach 270 in 1924. The car was originally constructed in 1880. It was sold to the Durangon & Silveton Narrow Gauge RR and reconverted to coach #270 and is still in service. The scan is from the SVRR Archive.
