the Q and D&RGW from late spring 1965 to summer 1966 operated a

was discontinued because the Q units lost power and overheated on the 
D&RGW. The Q units did not have radiator spray cooling systems that Rio 
Grande units had.

I remember seeing an Eastbound freight come through Sutton, Nebraska
during this time.  It had a solid consist of black D&RGW diesels on the
point.   GP35's, I think,   ....but that was a long time ago.   :-)
