There is a good photo of the Durango roundhouse boiler with firebox doors open, 1969, in the book "GRANDE GOLD" copyright 1989 by Railhead Publications. Andy Payne supplied all the photos for the book, so you can probably still buy prints from him.
Anyone who models the 1950-60's should have this book.
I was in the boiler house once, and there was only one boiler, a rather large stationary type.
(At least it looked large in the little space it occupied).
