Denver & Rio Grande Western - Cumbres Pass

One of the most scenic and spectacular line of the former 'Rio Grande' railroad is the Chama - Antonito section, crossing the Cumbres Pass at more than 3000m altitude. Luckily, this line was kept as a museum operation after the last commercial train run in 1968.
This is K36 484 with a chartered freight train on its way to the Pass at Lobato siding, as it was 50 years ago.

    Absolut wunderbare Aufnahme;
    vom Bildaufbau über die Farbenpracht der Natur bis zum Regenbogen - den der liebe Gott grad zur rechten Zeit "erstrahlen" liess :-) ... !

    Lovely capture of this very special train - in its element! And the rainbow makes it even more special.
    Compliments,
