Durango Yard???? 1968
| May 14, 2010 08:47AM |
These were the last three images we shot on June 3, 1968. 478 was headed back to the roundhouse in Durango, and got delayed by a track crew. We are standing on the end of a string of box cars as you will see in the last image. Now, I just want to confirm that this is between Carbon Junction and Durango yard. Or, is this CJ itself. I want to say this is between Carbon Junction and the roundhouse area, but 42 years makes things a little foggy! I put these three in the video, since there are no movies shot here. Enjoy!
