Chapter: 6 - The Feather River Canyon
Caption: (Report Photo 59) - Another one of those shots that I really didn't expect to amount to much, but has become one of my favorites from the trip. Taken somewhere around Rich Bar, I think, there's a long, winding stretch through here that lends itself well to large focal lengths...

Chapter: 6 - The Feather River Canyon
Caption: (Report Photo 58) - 4168 leads a westbound stacker through Williams Loop. Taken from the highway bridge, the real challenge to this shot is not getting a train, but rather avoiding getting hit by oncoming traffic on CA Hwy 70 - there's only a very narrow curb to stand on out of traffic.

Chapter: 2 - C&TS Christmas Trains
Caption: (Report Photo 33) - If it weren't for the motorcar, the insulated/twisted power conductors, and the faint bit of blue road sign in the background, this really would be a timeless image - 1939 or 2009? Making it feel even more like the early 1900s was the fact that Chama was completely without electricity this morning.

Chapter: 2 - C&TS Christmas Trains
Caption: (Report Photo 55) - Semi-permanently attached is SLRG 227, an F40PH carbody with traction motors and dynamic brake gear that draws power off the mother. The idea is that a single high horsepower unit cannot put all of its power to use effectively at low speeds. By adding more traction motors, more horsepower can be converted into tractive effort when traveling slowly (such as, say, pulling loads over La Veta).

Caption: (Report Photo 22) - And bringing up the south end is boxcar D&RGW 3000. Best I can tell, all of these cars were sold at auction by the DSNG several years back when they cleaned out the north yard. No idea whose yard they now sit in, but the two that are all fixed up are nicely done.

Report: A Narrow Gauge Weekend
Chapter: 1 - Friday on the D&S
Caption: (Report Photo 3) - Friday morning was cold, even by the standard of winters in the Rockies. When we got in the car in Alamosa, it was nine below. By the time we took this at Hermosa, I believe it was above zero, but not by much. The cold temperatures do wonders for causing the exhaust steam to instantly condense into a thick plume.
