Chuck:


You guessed well; it is indeed at Fort Collins on June 10, 1959, on the "private" trip Howard Fogg ran from Denver to Fort Collins and return for invited guests.  The man in the white cap up on the tender is C&S road foreman of engines R.E. "Mickey" Hansen, who generalyl ran the engine on every fantrip over the C&S.  He can be seen in the cab of the photo I posted a couple of weeks ago taken on this same trip at Church's Lake and showing the engine's Chinese red cab roof.

I've put a photo up and want to identify it.  The address below should take you to that photo.  I consulted the online fan trip reference, but no positive location or date yet.,

CB&Q 4-8-4 Class O-5-B 5626
CB&Q 4-8-4 Class O-5-B 5626 Chicago Burlington & Quincy Railroad 4-8-4 Class O-5-B 5626, date, location, and photographer unknown ( My guess is June 10, 1959 at Fort Collins, Colorado), print by Tom Klinger, Chuck Zeiler collection. Number 5626 was assembled by the CB&Q at West Burlington, Iowa, completed in April 1940, sold for scrap in November 1960. This locomotive was used on a few fan trips, and on one such trip in June 1959 powered an Illini Railroad Club 'Journey To Yesterday' fan trip. On the return trip to Chicago just a little bit east of Denver, CO, one of its eccentric rods broke at speed disabling the locomotive. Since the Burlington was no longer making heavy repairs to steam power by that date, 5626 was condemned and sold for scrap.
