Fine shot, good perspective. If you haven't done it, take the ride. Did it in September, enjoyed it, and got lots of photos.

Thank You. I enjoyed the photos that you posted. I belong to History Colorado Museum and get 4 free passes a year to the Georgetown Loop. I have not been on the train in a year thanks to Covid.

It was virtually mask free third week of September and very pleasant, of course the Luck of a perfect day helped.

Thanks for your comments. This engine had a cheater switch engine pushing it behind the tender. I was just lucky enough to catch this shot without exposing the diesel engine. I have shots of the whole train but that spoiled the picture. I also converted this to black and white giving it a different perspective.
