Coming south out of Lizard Head. Weaving her way south on the Dolores River, Rio Grande Southern 10-wheeler #20 takes a freight south from Lizard Head Pass down to Rico.
This wintertime RGS re-enactment was staged on Colorado's Durango & Silverton during a February 2026 visit by Rio Grande Southern Locomotive #20, which is owned and operated by the Colorado Railroad Museum. The 20 was in Durango for the first time since 1952, to participate in a series of public and private railroad charters, including this photo freight. This particular scene depicts #20 and her freight approaching the Tank Creek water stop on the Animas River, at Milepost 474.65.
