Thank you all for this info! It's interesting how many permutations the lettering schemes went through between 1902 and 1912, judging by the photos in the Narrow Gauge Pictorial, Volume VIII--see pages 112, 113, and 135--from the Colorado & Southern on the fascia:
to the big block gothic C&S with "Colorado and Southern" under the windows:
to the more restrained gothic C&S with the road name further down the side.
Unless 313 was an outlier in more regards than its undercarriage, as suggested in another thread.
Then again, it may have boiled down to the mood of the paint shop foreman on a given day.
