This is a beautiful fall action shot of Cripple Creek 0-4-0T+T #2 pulling the day's excursion train up a hill's 2ft narrow gauge track. When Dr John M. Birmingham created the Cripple Creek & Victor Narrow Gauge Railroad in 1967, he bought a 1936 German Henschel built 0-4-0ngT+T #2 for the tourist excursions. The "T+T" represents a tank engine (T) with an added tender (+T).J im Lockart caught the action as it was heading up a hillside with the day's excursion. The exact day in October, 1979 was not given. |
