There is one in the museum trackage at the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad station in Antonito, Colorado. It was obtained from the Denver & Rio Grande Western, which was dual gauged from Alamosa to two rock products plants a mile South of Antonito, on the line to Santa Fe, New Mexico.
There are also a short standard gauge flatcar with two couplers on each end, a narrow gauge boxcar and a standard gauge boxcar.
All procured and installed by the Friends of the Cumbres & Toltec Railroad.
