Remarks & Notes

The Fireman oils the bell of Rio Grande 2-8-2 K-37 No. 491 at it simmers on the turntable during the blue hour on the evening of November 17, 2014. The big Mikado (for three-foot narrow gauge, that is!) was originally retired in 1963, and restored to operation in 2014 at the Colorado Railroad Museum in Golden, Colorado.

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!)
