The California Zephyr, "The Silver Lady" is late this early June morning as she rushes toward Soldier Summit. #5574 is not often seen on the point, but it has the entire train stretched out, and all five dome cars are visible.
Burlington, Rio Grande and Western Pacific joined forces to run one of the most beautiful and innovative trains in the country, the California Zephyr. It ran from 1949-1970 but was widely recognized as one of the premiere trains in the West.
