The Durango & Silverton Railroad is world famous and runs in the mountains of Colorado. This line was operated until the Seventies by the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad. It was then sold and it continued to be run as a pure tourist rail-road. Although it is a narrow gauge railroad with a gauge of 3 feet (914 mm), the locomotives and cars do not need to shy away from a comparison with European standard gauge locomotives and cars. Trains with up to 10 of the famous old-timer cars are the rule rather than the exception. These cars are also in dark red and dark green paint schemes chiefly for special services and historic trains. The dark red cars also have a name in in addition to the car number. This is a model of the "Prospector" old-timer passenger car for the Durango & Silverton Railroad in the dark red paint scheme. The paint scheme and lettering are prototypical for Era VI. The doors can be opened, and the car has a complete interior. It also has metal wheelsats.
