Forgive me for submitting a picture of a standard gauge line, but I thought it might be of interest to some group members. I came across this postcard of the Cripple Creek Short Line in a sale at a steam show in the UK last year. It was posted on August 8 1908 (the postmark is a day later than the writing on the front to an address in Cheshire, England. The card is embossed to give a "3D" effect to the mountains. Does anybody know anything about the photographer or publisher of this card? It is numbered 108, so presumably was one of a series.
