Was not able to ride it this year, but
photographed the line last year and it is truly
beautiful. A bit of history to, the branch and La
Veta Pass were the last places where the D&RGW
used a standard gauge flanger.

I believe that the final Grande sg revenue steam runs were made on this same branch in late '56 with an 1100 series Consolidation.
