DSP&P ART GALLERY                                                      Railway Pages Index

Various artists have portrayed the DSP&P in glorious colour. Some are based on black and white photographs with a little artixtic license. Others are less realistic but give an impression of the 1879 to 1889 era. The images here are from various websites and are for my personal use. They have been reduced in size to protect the artists' original materials.

The four illustrations below are renderings by Jim Wilke, a well known locomotive historian, showing the ornate striping and lettering on early DSP&P Mason Bogies.

Most paintings show the DSP&P after the re-numbering of 1885. The CAD drawing above is by William Gould showing DSP&P 2-6-6T Mason Bogie #6 "Tenmile".

Bill offers four art prints and complete blackline plans for this locomotive at 1:20.3 and 1:24 scale from his website. The 1:24 plans complement the 1:24 scale Delton #15 "Brekenridge" and the 1:20.3 version would match the 1:20.3 scale Accucraft "San Juan" and "Tenmile" when they arrive later in 2010.
