Fall Colors Freights
| October 08, 2018 07:50AM |
A big 'Thank You' to all the people involved in the three day fall colors freights. I had a wonderful time. A few items to start the ball rolling. . .
Train 215 at Apache Canyon Road, with the aspens on the hillside above the railroad, September 28, 2018.
A night photo session with the Model T Ford pick up and D&RGW 453 (actually 463 with new numbers and a few slight cosmetic changes), and C&TS 484 outside the Antonito shops on September 28th.
The first run-by on the 29th was west of Antonito at a crossing, with both the Model T and a Packard staged as photo props for the 453 and her freight.
We got out early on September 30th for the dawn at Ferguson's Trestle.
More later. That'll do . . . .
