I am writing an article for the RGMHS Prospector on NW2 #100, D&RGW's first diesel locomotive, delivered in January 1941.   During the war, it and Baldwin VO-660 #73 operated on the Associated Railroad, a grouping made up of AT&SF, CB&Q, C&S, CRI&P, and D&RGW, to run trains on the Denver & Intermountain interurban line to Golden (owned by Denver Tramway).   The industry served was the Denver Ordnance Plant on the Remaco (Remington Arms) Spur at the site of what is now the Denver Federal Center.   About 100 carloads were moved each day during the war on this branch by D&RGW or C&S diesels.   D&RGW #100 and #73 were equipped with trolley poles until 1953 when operating this branch to activate the crossing signals.   I have photos of these two D&RGW engines on this service with trolley poles.   Does anyone know of photos of any C&S/CB&Q engine operating on the Remaco Spur for Associated Railroads, equipped with a trolley pole?
