D&RGW 168, Steam locomotive at Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad, Colorado, United States.

The D&RGW 168 locomotive features 46-inch drivers and operates on narrow-gauge tracks, making it suitable for passenger transportation through mountain routes.

Built in 1883 by Baldwin Locomotive Works, this engine led a special train carrying President William Howard Taft to the Gunnison Tunnel opening in 1909.

The locomotive represents early American railroad engineering and transportation development, connecting communities across the challenging western terrain of Colorado.

Visitors can observe the restored D&RGW 168 during excursions at the Cumbres and Toltec Scenic Railroad, which operates seasonal train rides through Colorado.

After 55 years of revenue service and decades as a display piece, the locomotive underwent a complete restoration in 2019 at a cost of 508,000 dollars.
