in Ely, Nevada. There's not much to Ely other than the Kennicott mine. It has been there for decades and just about everything in town revolves around it. The train was how they carried the ore from the mine in times gone by. Some years back a group renewed the train, offering short runs as a tourist thing. They offer dinner trips and star-gazing trips. Ely sits on US 50, which has been designated the "loneliest road in America." It is a LONG way to anywhere else! And there's not much in Ely. I go there for an art show and always make money. This year it was exceptionally good!

Congrats APL for a successful financial endeavor and the great photos of the coal powered stem train, she's a beauty....oh, the smell of smoke and the cinders, reminds me of the old days during the transition to diesel when my father was an engineer on those steam trains.....Cheers.

Nice set Kathy! I recently made a train trip from Durango to Silverton. I too was waiting for the train to go around the bend so I could include the engine and coal car. Always seemed to be a group of trees in the way, ha! By the way, the coal seems to be stacked about as high as they can make it without falling off the side of the car. The back end of that car is filled with water for the boiler.

Excellent set. If my memory is not playing tricks on me, Ely is where the B-29 crews that dropped the atomic bombs trained at the Army Air Force Base that used to be there.

I especially love the shot from the open car...I can almost hear "the rumble and the roar of the Kennicott Cannonball"
