Remarks & Notes

Late afternoon turn at Osier. While the patrons of the Friends Maintenance of Way Charter enjoy a late lunch in the distant Osier Dining Hall, the crew of the 463 has turned the train to face east, and watered and serviced their K-27 Locomotive. Just second after snapping the shutter, our engineer blew a series of whistles, calling everyone back to the train for departure back to Antonito. I wish we had been able to take a couple of run-by shots after departing Osier. The late afternoon/evening light was absolutely superb and the fall colors around Toltec Gorge were stunning.
