My son came across this image on Facebook. There wasn’t any accreditation that I know of but I sure would like to find out who deserves it. The image looks to me to be from a Kodachrome slide but,who knows?

I love this shot. No touristas here, just a fine and simple example of a work train from long ago. Wikipedia has a short but excellent history on the RGS, by the way.

That's the image I posted. It was taken presumably by Harold Midwood. It was a Kodachrome slide that I had restored using Photo shop CC.

I was blown away by the IQ of a 60+ year old color slide. Great shot and an out standing restoration Chris.
Can you give me any more information about it and the photographer? Was this a Rocky Mountain Railroad Club event?

Cool forum name btw
