A narrow gauge Garratt locomotive that was built by "Hanomag" in Hannover. It was sold in the pre-war time to a railroad in southern Africa and came back to Hannover in 1988. Now it is owned by a museum that has restored it externally for display. I took the photo during an temporary exhibition in the old Hanomag factory in autum 1991.

Again I have no good background information. The picture was taken in Cripple Creek in May 91. The loco is a 2 foot gauge mallet that looks European to me. Could be one of the Heeresfeldbahn locos discussed some time ago. While it looked like being in running order the train we rode on was pulled by another smaller loco. Maybe operating and maintaining a mallet is too much for them.

The CC&V #4 is an 0-4-4-0 simple Meyer mallet built by Bagnall (UK) in 1946 for a South African sugar plantation. It arrived in the U.S. in 1968.

CC&V's #1 is an 60cm gauge 0-4-4-0 compound mallet built by Orenstein & Koppel (Germany) in 1902 for a mining company in Mexico. It was acquired by a private party in Boulder CO in 1964, and in 1967 was sold to the CC&V.
