Remarks & Notes

Nightfall over Minturn
Darkness is settling over the town of Minturn, that sits at the foot of Tennessee Pass on Rio Grande’s Royal Gorge Route main line. Three EMD SD40T-2 Tunnel Motors used as helpers for trains on the arduous 3-percent grade up the pass snooze near the small enginehouse in the yard on the evening of July 5, 1987.

Special Duty Locomotives Album created by member John Westfield	Album Views: 65,326
The EMD SD (special duty) series are a strong and reliable kind of locomotive which still serve America's rails today. They have proved themselves reliable by clocking in several million miles of freight service over several decades.

Nocturnal Nuances & Lights In The Night! (Between Sunset - Sunrise / Sundown - Sunup!) Album created by member Dana M.	Album Views: 444,429
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!)

Classic Railroading Album created by member Chessiefan2	Album Views: 530,317
Railroading in the 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, basically anything but the 2000s.
