Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Built by the Brooks Locomotive Works in Dunkirk, NY, this was one of nineteen Class B-4-R Consolidation type (2-8-0) locomotives delivered to the Colorado & Southern in 1906 (#600-#643).The Brooks locomotives brought the C&S B-4-R roster to forty four. Many of the class were later superheated and, although retirements started as early as the late 1920s, they operated into the 1960s. Long after the rest of the road had been dieselised, the C&S continued to use steam on its Climax-Leadville branch as the thin air at the high altitude of Leadville (10,152’) severely hampered the operation of internal combustion engines. #638 ran a few excursions in 1962 on the Moffatt line. That year, it was donated to the City of Trinidad, CO, and is on display on Purgatoire Drive. |
