It was reorganized as the Rio Grande Western and then merged with the Denver & Rio Grande to form the later D&RGW in 1920. The D&RGW Railroad narrow gauge lines by the 1920s were roughly in a circle in south-central Colorado and northern New Mexico, none in Utah.
Look up The Narrow Gauge Circle on the net, and you will find photos arranged according to the various routes that could be taken, from engines and rolling stock to depots. Beare in mind that you won't find much difference in the depots since they were constructed mostly to the same set of standard plans.
This will get you started.
