Entering Colorado
The Denver & Rio Grande Western's narrow-gauge line from Antonito, CO to Chama, NM weaves back and forth across the border between Colorado and New Mexico, crossing it numerous times. In this frame, a Denver & Rio Grande Western C-18 Locomotive #315 has just re-entered Colorado as she takes a short stock train west toward the remote waystation in Osier, just a mile or so further down the line. The train is pictured here just about to enter a rock cut near Milepost 317.4.
This image was captured during a September 2013 photo shoot on the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad, which featured turn-of-the-century D&RGW power, including C-18 Locomotive #315 and K-27 Locomotive #463.
