Haven't posted anything lately from out favorite NNG locomotive.
Hear is some video I shot last weekend:
Heading up the hill from MP 203.5. Student fireman is Mark Reagan:
Continuing up the hill where the previous scene ended. The pan shot up the hill is looking at the low saddle in the ridge that hides the summit of La Veta Pass. We continue up the the hill thru the shap 16 degree S-curves at MP 205.5.
MP 205.75 to the top at Fir. The deep cut was originally a tunnel. It was daylighted around 1915.
