Passenger Train on the Georgetown Loop RR - Part 2
| October 22, 2018 04:55PM |
Crossing Devils Gate High Bridge
Enhanced Capture of the passenger consist as we complete the crossing of Devils Gate High Bridge just east of MP 52.
My attempts at shooting the train coming around the High Fill curve didn't pan out, and the remainder of the trip was spent enjoying the trip at track speed behind steam. #111 sounded magnificent as she made her way up the mountain, and I have no doubt that both Phil and Mike were enjoying running and firing on this run. This trip was a great way to close out steam operations at the Loop for the 2018 Season.
Regards,
Shane
