DRGW 4-8-2 #1516 - Denver & Rio Grande Western
Title:  DRGW 4-8-2 #1516 - Denver & Rio Grande Western
Description:  Caught by G. M Best while sitting on an unidentified turntable, this 1923 Alco built Mountain type locomotive looks like all business. Specficis - class M-78, scrapped in June, 1954. The date and location were not listed for this photo so arbitrary ones were used. Anyone recognize the turntable or roundhouse?
