The Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad Class M-67 was a class of 4-8-2 "Mountain" steam locomotives with a total of 30 examples built by the American Locomotive Company's (ALCO) Brooks Works for the Denver and Rio Grande Western Railroad in 1922.

With 63-inch drivers, they developed 62,661 pounds of tractive force. Cylinder dimensions were 28x30 inches and boiler pressure was 210 p.s.i. They had 4667 square feet of evaporative heating surface and 1333 square feet of superheater surface, plus an 80-square-foot grate area. They had a locomotive weight of 377,000 pounds.

They were all retired from revenue service by 1955 and every single one of them were scrapped. Nos. 1511-1520 were modified with a booster engine on their trailing trucks and were re-designated as the class M-78, but they didn't last for very long and they were also scrapped, thus rendering the Class M-67 officially extinct.
