Great stuff!

This one says "Near Leadville".  Anyone know what the town is?

On the Leadville location, what about Red Cliff on the DRG?

I'm interested in the water tank, painted a light color:



What color would this have been?

  Bonus points for you, Tom.  Deeper digging reveals "Photo taken on

  How are you capturing these images ?  When I try, they are super tiny.

John,
take a look in Jim's thread here: http://c-sng-discussion-forum.41377.n7.nabble.com/Early-C-amp-S-Water-Tank-Paint-Schemes-td3357.html

=====================================

  No phone use here.  But when I click on the image (once enlarged) it only
allows me to zoom in on wherever my cursor is positioned.  I cannot drag or
copy anything but the thumbnail.
