The Denver and Rio Grande Western K-36 is a 3 ft (914 mm) narrow gauge 2-8-2 "Mikado" type steam locomotives, of which 10 were made, built for the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad (D&RGW) by Baldwin Locomotive Works. They were shipped to the Rio Grande in 1925 and were first used along the Monarch Branch and Marshall Pass, but were later sent to the Third Division out of Alamosa. Of the original ten, four are owned by the Durango and Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad (D&SNG) and five by the Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad (C&TSRR). Number 485 fell into the turntable pit at Salida and was scrapped in Pueblo in 1955, with many parts being saved.
The locomotives are of outside-frame design, with the driving wheels placed between the two chassis frames which support the boiler, but with the cylinders, driving rods, counterweights and valve gear on the outside.
This video is a celebration of the K36’s 100th Anniversary and was shot along the Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad, from Hangmen’s Trestle to Tangelfoot Curve. This day we were presented with a mid train helper locomotive.
