One of the most popular series of locomotives that once worked on the Denver & Rio Grande Western Railroad was the small, C-16 Consolidations, which served for decades.  Built in 1881-82 by both Grant and Baldwin, more than 80 units were delivered and were the largest narrow gauge locomotives available at the time.  Because they had a weight on the drivers of some 60,000 pounds, the D&RG designated them as Class 60 engines.  These were later labeled "C-16" ("C" for "Consolidation" and "16" as an index of their tractive effort, about 16,000 pounds) and some lasted for as long as 70 years in both freight and passenger service.  It is now one of the most famous narrow gauge locomotives of the Far West.
