Gosh Ron, I really don't know the answers to your questions. The gondola is narrow gauge 3 foot. There are three of my size 12s between the rails, I checked that. There were two gondolas, one restored and one probably in the works of being restored. I have no idea why it is painted up for the Rio Grande. The two gondolas were coupled together but I did not take a picture of them together. Directly behind them was the saddle tanker and then the consolidation as you calll it. The saddle tanker, now that I look back at the picture, seems to be sitting on two extra rails between the narrow gauge and may very well be 2 feet. I believe the Edaville consolidation was sitting on the 3 ft. narrow gauge. Would you believe I was there and never noticed? One of my club members, seeing the pictures, mentioned he had been there and that it may be closed permanently because they lost some state funding. They were also suppose to have a working steam engine, that may have been in the engine house that locked behind me. The same club member mentioned that they had a steam engine that had been shipped over from Hawaii. I am still trying to get some information on this display or storage and this is all hearsay and I would rather post factual information if I can find it.
