Image description

Engine number 60 of the Colorado Central Railroad is shown here after a wreck in Boulder Canyon, near Boulder, Colorado on April 4, 1893. A broken flange caused the train to go off the tracks and over the embankment, though the crew managed to escape. This image comes from the Thomas Norrell Railroad Collection which includes almost 11,000 photographs and negatives of main line and industrial locomotives from North America and around world which Norrell collected throughout his life.
