I believe that's the Mollie Gibson mine which was near Aspen, CO:

Hol,

The photo of the B&MR box car is very interesting to me as it shows a Colorado Midland box car in the back. I also did some CM modeling and am interested in knowing where this photo was taken. I assume somewhere in Colorado, but where? Did the Q and CM have parallel tracks at a specific location?

Where was the Mollie mine located?

It was in use on freight and waycars by the turn of the 20th Century, certainly well before the 1904 system renumbering that consolidated all the controlled roads' cars into the CB&Q numbering system.

When was the white on black herald applied to waycars, boxcars, etc?
