I was all of 6 years old at the time. Earlier that year, I rode behind C&S 638 from Denver Union Station to the Colorado Railroad Museum in what was my very first train ride.
Living in Littleton, and I guess my dad knowing this would be the final run, it was all hands in the car for the chase. This photo was snapped south of Littleton by a family friend.
