- Group of Men Posing with Locomotive, circa 1885 - Twelve men posed with a narrow-gauge 0-6-0 tank locomotive on the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad. The D&RG's rails were three feet apart, closer than the standard gauge of four feet, eight and one-half inches. Narrow-gauge railroads were less expensive to build, making them popular in difficult terrain like the D&RG's crossing of the Rocky Mountains.
