This is the Ron Nixon collection, and the captioning on many of the
photos -- done by volunteers at the library -- is notoriously 
inaccurate. I've noticed this especially in the C&S photos.

     A photo collection that I haven't seen reference to before is at the
     Montana Museum of the Rockies. This link should go to the railroad
     search page, and there are 8 pages of CB&Q photos, almost all steam.
     There are also B&MR photos and C&S. Note, though, that there are two
     search pages for the latter road - "Colorado and Southern" and 
"Colorado
     & Southern".

     http://muse.museum.montana.edu/rvndb/rvn_railroad_lst.php

     Included are photos of the first CB&Q trains to enter and leave St Paul
     in August 1934. Unfortunately, they do not appear to be the same Zephyr
     unit! Arriving is #9905 Zephyrus (which wasn't delivered until November
     193) and departing is #9900.
