...oh yes, nice pix!
The comparison of the Eureka with the K36 aside shows the difference between "heavy" and "light" narrow gauge. As in Standard Gauge, i think it must have been the same in NG with the track. One matter building NG RRs was the factor of costs, so early rails were tiny and slim, too.
I think they wouldnt carry a K36.
The Georgetown-Loop-Pic is great, too.
It might be that the light loco on the left has nearly full load with such a coach. Those locos werent built for steep mountain-lines.
