D&RGW K-28 476 on Train #461 at Needleton Tank, Needleton, Colorado, August 22, 1965, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. On the way to Silverton from Durango, trains stopped at Neetleton Tank for a drink of water, located roughly half way between the two towns, On the return trip, the stop was not required, as most of the trip was down grade and not as much water was consumed.

Jacob Woods General This is Needleton Tank, the Tank Creek Tank is on the right on the way to Silverton. Also the Tank Creek Tank had no legs, it just sat up on rocks. It had some wood piers to hold it, but no legs. In the background the 14000 Needle Mountains Can be seen. But still a wonderful shot, I love Needleton Tank. 5/24/2013 6:42:28 AM
Chuck Zeiler General Thanks for the correction, I was using the information I wrote on the slide mount. 5/24/2013 7:39:27 AM
