D&RGW #223 Restoration Progress

NOTE, THE RESTORATION WORK ON 223 HAS BEEN SUSPENDED INDEFINITELY. THE STATE OF UTAH IS CONSIDERING WHAT TO DO WITH THE LOCOMOTIVE. THE GOLDEN SPIKE CHAPTER R&LHS IS ENCOURAGING THE STATE TO DONATE THE LOCOMOTIVE TO THE CUMBRES AND TOLTEC RAILROAD IN New Mexico. THEY WISH TO COMPLETE THE RESTORATION OF 223 AND OPERATE IT ON THEIR NARROW GAUGE TOURIST RAILROAD.

This is a PowerPoint presentation about the restoration of D&RGW C16 narrow gauge consolidated #223. The Golden Spike Chapter R&LHS worked on this restoration for over 20 years. A group of stalwart volunteers worked on Saturdays with the goal of restoring the locomotive to operating status. The PowerPoint file was converted to a video with narration and music to illustrate what our group has been doing up to the current time.
