Re: That October 1997 charter

I think I liked it because of the weather. Snow and fall color all in the same day! I didn't know enough to know whether the consists were accurate or not, so I didn't care. :-) You've posted some very similar pix to my own. We must have chased together. I remember handing Dave Rogers cash to get on the charter. He was happy to accept it. Here's one at Los Pinos from just before your loop photo. Maybe it was my exposure, but I'm pretty sure it was kind of white out conditions, which is what I liked about this particular scene.
