There is a collection of Gilpin photos for sale on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/334724645452?hash=item4def24c24c:g:ItkAAOSwNuxj2Bk6&amdata=enc%3AAQAHAAAAkPaj7RkydyIzC1UkIFh1%2FP25UtNMTZ87Uid%2Fh58ShdwWDN5vwN%2BoEJAo%2F8nknDeHpnfFdOqFEuT%2BsJqNa5%2BLGWiQvXjdoVOdI2V9B8oxcuvcsCHBcQT9ekbmighguAidxRS0arhRsU9UD%2BIOANqqNHGn3LuO5UVMM3RZkCUT2sf4HvhU8gwvkE1pOiRTO%2F%2Bj2Q%3D%3D%7Ctkp%3ABk9SR-K984vBYQ

Five photos are of the shays in the snow, such as this one:




The sixth photo is of a Gilpin "train", including a caboose:




Anyone know the location of this latter photo?? What are the two steel towers and their function?? I doubt that they are radio antennae for local Blackhawk FM 106.5, during the Gilpin Tram era. Zeppelin anchor pylons, maybe, for airship service from Denver?
