Remarks & Notes 
"It's all downhill from here!" After its long journey across the Great Plains and two mountain ranges, California Zephyr #5 is on the final leg of its trip en route to the San Francisco Bay area. Here we see 186 & 162 leading their train as it effortlessly glides around the big curve at Troy on the west slope of Donner Pass.
