Louis:

Going over the Denver Public Library's Otto Perry catalog, I can find no examples of Santa Fe steam on the Q east of Denver, at any date.  But here are some of the detouring diesel-powered passenger trains:

AT&SF train, engine number 20 + additional diesel unit, engine type EMD F3 :: Photographs - Western History digital.denverlibrary.org

http://digital.denverlibrary.org/cdm/singleitem/collection/p15330coll22/id/55009/rec/1

AT&SF train, engine number 68 + additional diesel unit, engine type ALCO PA1 :: Photographs - Western History digital.denverlibrary.org

http://digital.denverlibrary.org/cdm/singleitem/collection/p15330coll22/id/55012/rec/1

AT&SF train, engine number 75 + additional diesel unit, engine type ALCO PA1 :: Photographs - Western History digital.denverlibrary.org

http://digital.denverlibrary.org/cdm/singleitem/collection/p15330coll22/id/55014/rec/1

AT&SF train, engine number 75 + additional diesel unit, engine type ALCO PA1 :: Photographs - Western History digital.denverlibrary.org

PA's on the Q!!  These last two are the same train, the first shot showing the train coming toward Denver, apparently with the consist backwards, and the second view is the train heading south over the Joint Line later that same day, the consist now in proper order.

Otto shot lots of other detouring trains -- both passenger and freight, all diesel powered -- but all of them south of Denver on the Joint Line.
