Todd,
I would make a low dollar bet this is at Marshall Pass in the very early days, perhaps within the first year of the railroad reaching the summit. What would make me question that is the lack of excavation on the grade at the summit. That may be behind the photographer though. Wherever it is, it's a really cool picture!
