In the post "Christmas 1917 Brownie Anderson" there is an item from his time book for Jan 16, 1918 on a "slow trip from Leadville to Como.  
Now the rest  of the story.
Anderson arrived in Como from Leadville with train #71 at 5AM, Jan 16, 1918(20 hrs 45min)
Anderson departs Como on Jan 16,  1918 1:55PM on train #70 for Leadville on Eng #4 with engs 71-9-4.  Helped rotary out of Dickey to Leadville, arrived with #70 at 4PM Jan 17.  Time book shows 26 hours, pay $8.45.
So you are looking for the "good old days"?
By the way by Jan 20 Brownie is back on a 3 eng rotary run from Como to Breckenridge.  5:30AM to 8:20PM.
All from A.A. Brownie Anderson"s time books.
By the way ground blizzard in the South Park Dec 25, 2017.  Things have not changed.
