Great and interesting research. Thanks for typing it up for others. Kind of takes away the invention idea for the use of gasoline on the RGS as it was visioned here in 1908 that would be the route of the other lines. Also, the adjacent New Mexico Lumber Co. used a goose before the RGS ran them. Only the D&RG did not resort to a Goose. I believe the car is back in service for/by the Silverton Historical Society.
