Remarks & Notes 
Desert Dawn. A D&RGW Flanger outfit heads west from Ferguson's Trestle at sunrise, on a mission to open the line to Chama via Cumbres Pass. On the back platform of his caboose, Extra 487's Conductor takes a moment to soak in the stunning colors of the desert dawn.

Good Light, Good Scenery, and a Train

Landscape photography is difficult due to the challenge of combining good light and good scenery. Good railroad photography enters another level of complexity since it requires the first two while there is a train in view.

A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
