Engine No. 60 was built by the Rhode Island Locomotive Works in 1886. It was operated by the Utah and Northern Railroad as Engine No. 263 until the owner, Union Pacific, transferred it and four others to operator Denver, Leadville & Gunnison Railroad in 1890. Eventually, Southern & Colorado assumed control of UPs narrow-gage rail lines and renumbered all engines.
Old No. 60 is proudly on display at the Idaho Springs City Hall with informational signs recognizing the beneficial relationship between nascent mining development in the Colorado mountains and late 19th Century railroad companies.
