Other RR's in the Act...

Here's the "Williams Flyer" on the Grand Canyon just south of Imbleau (formerly Apex) Arizona. Looks like it might be 2 Alco FA-4's, A power Car, 6 Coaches (dunno weather they are Budd's or Harrimans), the Cafe Car (Ex Pennsy Budd Car), and the Club Car.



2nd Photo is at Anita, about Six miles south of the Flyer with the "Canyon Limited", and should be 15 minuets behind the Flyer. This is where the Grade really steepens (3% Grade, Steepest on the line). This is what some would call an overflow train, as 15 Cars is our limit on the line so we have the room to turn the trains and load them at the depots...because the car count exceeded 15 cars, the train was broken into two sections. My guess is it's our F40 239 leading this train 4 "Flat Cars"...i.e. our single level First Class Budd Cars, 3 Domes, the Santa Fe luxury car and with the roof shining more than the stainless cars, I'm gonna guess that's the Max Biegert Car which is painted Silver versus the normal Stainless.
