RGS 20 and the TRAINS photo freight are heading out of Osier
By this time the number of rail fans chasing the photo special had thinned out drastically, and Jack and I had the ridge east of Sublette to ourselves. We were watching an approaching thunderstorm and hoping that the train action would come quickly. The first to come was 455 running light engine.
RGS 20 and her train were not long in coming
With the tree growth over the decades, glimpses of the train from the ridge have gradually gotten smaller, but have not vanished entirely
