If you click on the channel you will find he has lots of movies from the fifties and sixties mostly upper northwest steam but has DRGW Alamosa to Durango freight as well as CATS from 1972.

Love the shot of the highway 550 crossing at Hermosa. Looks a lot different today.

Also note the difference in passenger roof tops. Some scenes have yellow painted clearstory windows while the later have all silver.

Also note the baggage car and go old combine 212, and NO open gondolas.
Ahh the good old Silverton train
