Yes, it’s a model - 1
1. Derrell Poole says of this photo: “This is one of the photos from
my Uncle Bender’s collection. Uncle Bender traveled to Colorado as a
young man around 1909 and ’10. This view is of C&S 69, a Baldwin built
2-8-0 purchased by the Denver Leadville & Gunnison in 1890. Number
69 is on its way up the east side of Trout Creek Pass on the 170-degree
loop over Longs Creek.” Darrell continues, “To me, models are a means
of experiencing and telling a
story, primarily the narrative of
history. Every model railroad,
including mine, tells a story.”
