A Riverside Run
The mixed train from Durango is approaching a water tank a bit further up the track for its first water stop on the way to Silverton. Visible to the right of the train is the Animas River that the train follows for much of the journey.
This photograph was captured during a photo shoot on the Durango & Silverton Narrow Gauge Railroad, organised by Trains Magazine. K-28 2-8-2 #473 had been re-numbered for the event to portray #477 with Rio Grande ‘speed lettering’ while working on the D&RGW.
