LS m he same day she emerged as Hollywood's " fcisikillt'Jssr"- " newest movie star she was presented with a huge wreath of flowers J3l$ honoring over 70 years of faithful service and signifying virtual re tirement. A featured star W'in the recently premiered premi-ered "Denver & Rio Grande," Cinder Ella, narrow-gauge locomotive 268, makes her exit with more honor and glory than she has ever known. Acclaimed as a novelty of today, she was a hard working pioneer of yesterday... a faithful builder of the west. i"- fid any years ago, in 1890, when giant standard gauge loco- relfoM motives pushed her off Rio Grande main lines and consigned her to C a rapidly diminishing narrow-gauge empire, she knew her era was '(h passing. To be sure, she and her sisters have fought long and hard to keep the pace, and technological advancements in all types of transportation and the transition of bonanza f&SS mining camps to ghost towns have combined to sLssp M'l point up the significant job done by the narrow gauge. "2aljLii ddi s she looks forward to her retirement, she has every reason to be proud because of her fame as a film queen, and, more important, because of her contribution to the development of a great modern railroad, the home railroad of Colorado and Utah, which is today ot.e of America's foremost transportation servants. She can bask in the f -ryxm glory of the sleek Vista- Dome streamliners which jtj ifiiBfrftSLT streak over the trails she blazed through the heart of "s--a" n itJSa' Rockies a progres sive railroad in 1952 spending m another 23 million dol lars for improvements to plant and equipment. Old 268 can pop a valve with pride when she views the schools, highways, and airports built with tax money she helped earn for the Rio Grande taxes today amounting to more than one million dollars per month, among others supplying the very life blood of local government in her territory. She can take maternal cheer in the knowledge that today an average of three million dollars a month makes up the payroll of more than 7,000 Rio Grande employees (average annual wage in excess of $4,500) who work in the main line communities she once served. u ti-Saybe not today, or tomorrow, or a year from now; but soon her whistle will be stilled forever . . . soon she will lead the procession of the few remaining members of her narrow-gauge fleet awny from the hopeless struggle with progress. -r -f. El er Hollywood co-stars named her Cinder Ella, and properly so, for her story ends in the melting pot of progress she will live "happily ever after," literally recast to fit a new role in the never-ending advance of civilization.
