The "Other" Snowsheds On Cumbres Pass!
| January 28, 2017 06:35AM |
While we all are familiar with the remnants of the snowshed over the wye track at Cumbres itself and what it used to look like before most of it was removed, we should not forget there we other snowsheds on Cumbres pass long ago.
Here is a photo from an album I have with over 100 images taken on Cumbres Pass during the winter of 1908-1909. This shows some of the other snowsheds that used to be on Cumbres Pass. Enjoy.
