And finally, the C&TS Osier Turn from the parlor car. Nice ride, and the train was long enough to get a little stack talk despite the lesser grades on the eastern side of Cumbres.
The ride back down on the back platform in the rain was an absolutely fantastic experience. Not going to forget that one anytime soon.
