Antique old D&RG Railroad soldered oil can Denver & Rio Grande (not D&RGW)

Antique Here is a neat pre-1920’s Denver & Rio Grand Rail Road Oil Can for refilling lanterns. Stamped in raised letters D&RGRR. This was before the Denver & Rio Grande anded the Western.This can is scarcer type, much scarcer than the D&RGW eagle oil cans. This on is missing its cap. It is empty and has been washed out. No rust holes or rust that I can spot. Heavy tin coating. Great old Colorado Railroad piece. When communities lived and died based on the weither a Railroad could reach the town. What engineering feats were attained by the RR companies in Colorado especially reaching Leadville and Cripple Creek and even the great hagerman tunnel under the divide. Thanks for looking!
