But it's a great photo, John -

An historic and very unique shot of the railroad in transition.  The steamer pushing the train closest to the camera is reasonably traditional looking, and the trees are beautiful too!  Plus it's a small diesel, not some big uhg-uly thing like a GP-30.

My cousin and I had tickets for the first train of the day back in September, 2014, but I didn't make it any farther east than Alamosa that year.   When I didn't show up, the folks at the MWRR refunded my ticket without even being asked – THAT is a class act!
