Remarks & Notes

Royal Gorge in the Royal Gorge. Unquestionably one of America's most scenic tourist excursions, the Royal Gorge Railroad in Cañon City, Colorado makes several trips a day through the geographic feature from which it derives its name. An astoundingly long 17 car train (including four full domes) is bracketed by a pair of geeps (CRRX 728, EMD GP40PH-2 leading) for the 3:30 PM run on Wednesday, September 1, 2020. It has just started the trip to Parkdale, Colorado and will stay at only a few feet above the Arkansas River for most of the trip.
