On page 153 of 'The Age of Steam' Beebe & Clegg refer to "the Yosemite Valley Railroad. So were there two different railroads, or did the railroad from Merced to El Portal have different names at different times? (BTW, elsewhere in 'The Age of Steam' a U.P. 4-6-6-4 is referred to as a "Big Boy" . . . ).

Here is further proof that Hank is right about Ansel Adams and John & Willie are both right about Photoshop –
. . . another photo stolen from JBWX' site, converted from color to black & white in "infra-red appearance" mode, and "Adams-ized" by adding the clouds from the previously purloined Los Pinos picture, but flipped left-to-right, in the background
:
JBWX Photos 'West of Toltec' and 'Los Pinos' "borrowed" 06/17/22 from [chasingtrains.smugmug.com] w/o permission and combined by R. Bushnell Sperious using Photoshop Elements 10.
For further proof that I'm right about John West, see [
chasingtrains.smugmug.com].
