#30 was built by Cooke in 1898 for the Colorado & Northwestern Railroad Company. It was sold to a locomotive dealer in 1919 who later sold it to the Colorado & Southern Railroad in 1921 where it became their #74. When the C&S abandoned their narrow gauge operations in early 1941, she was sold to another locomotive dealer until she was sold to the Rio Grande Southern Railroad in 1949. The RGS went out of business in 1953 and #74 was donated to the town of Boulder, Colorado. In 2012, #30 was then relocated to the Colorado Railroad Museum in Golden, Colorado where she stands on display today.

I'm looking at becoming a filmmaker someday, and your facilities and equipment look perfect for a Western movie.
