Denver and Rio Grande Western

Main Line Thru the Rockies

One of my friends from the Air Force was stationed near Denver and we traded slides.

I found an official equipment list of D&RGW dated 1 January 1966. I have created tables of this equipment although it now a railroad I have seen. It was interesting to note that narrow steam and rolling stock was still listed.

Narrow Gauge


Locomotives

Steam


Freight Cars


Passenger

Ski Train

After DRGW withdrew from passenger service, they continued to operate the seasonal ski trains from Denver to the ski area to the west. After DRGW was merged, this operation was taken over by private interests and continue, with the train still painted and lettered for the DRGW.
