Remarks & Notes |
C&S 641 backs into town to pickup its train for Climax on an absolutely glorious winter day in the Arkansas River Valley. In the background are several peaks that exceed 14,000 feet. I think one of them is Mount Elbert, the highest point in Colorado. Since originally posting the picture I have learned the large building on the right is the DRGW engine and car shop, now gone. |
