Builder's Photo, taken in 1879, of DSP&P 2-6-6T Mason Bogie #15 "Breckenridge". The lettering was probably gold with red drop-shadow. The boiler was russia iron, probably light grey or blue, cab and tender box probably dark green or brown, brightwork polished brass. Photos could not be reproduced in magazines or newspapers until after 1890 when the duotone process was invented, so engravers were assigned to redraw photos, as shon above.
