With most of the heavy lifting done, a Denver & Rio Grande Western Cumbres Turn rounds Windy Point at Milepost 331.0, clawing its way up the last half mile to Cumbres Pass, CO, bringing a large cut of freight loads, destined for Alamosa, CO. The road engine today is DRGW K-36 #487. Helping on the tail end of the train is sister engine #488, both out of Chama, NM. On the very far left edge of the photo, the tracks just east of Coxo Crossing are visible in the valley far below, demonstrating that even at the very end of its run to Cumbres Pass, the railroad maintains that steep, 4% grade.
This image was captured during an October, 2012 photo shoot on the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad, organized by Lerro Photography. The camera a position offering this commanding view of Windy Point is a ridge on the south side of Highway 17. The rocky point where I am standing has informally acquired the name "Roger's Rock", after noted local photographer, Roger Hogan.
The quintessential classic 1950s, B.R. designed, really useful engines pose at the 2022 DRS open day at Crewe Gresty Bridge (photobombed by an 88).
There are many reasons why visitors flocked to this event at Gresty Bridge on 16 July 2022, but one of them must surely be that it may have been the last opportunity to view the DRS heritage fleet in significant numbers. The offer of a lease back scheme may mean that DRS will still have access to some of these magnificent machines and hopefully Kingmoor can produce a line up like this in 2024.
wreckage of the Boeing Superfortress B-29A that lies scattered across the peat on Bleaklow, close to the Higher Shelf stones. Hard to imagine that it was over 60 years ago that the aircraft misjudged the height in thick cloud, as the remains are so well preserved...
Largest private collection of steam locomotives in the world.
Built in 1916 as Munising, Marquette & Southeastern Railway No.44, this massive 2-8-0 was specially designed for service on heavy iron ore trains in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. These ore trains were operated from the Marquette Iron Range to docks on Lake Superior for shipment by lake boats to lower Great Lakes steel mills. Three identical locomotives were sold to the neighboring Lake Superior & Ishpeming Railroad, into which the MM&S was eventually merged in 1924. As part of the merger, the engine was re-lettered and renumbered as LS&I No.33. (Age of Steam Roundhouse)

Standing in the Engine Shed next to two magnificent steam engines makes you really appreciate their scale and grandeur.

Special:
- The Imperial name had been used since 1926, but was never a separate make, just the top-of-the-line Chrysler, until 1955 when it was launched and registered as a separate luxury marque.
- The new "Fuselage Look" with rounded "tumblehome" sides, bulging at the belt line, and tucking in down to the rocker panels was designed by Elwood Engel.
- This new styling made the cars look longer and wider and surrounded the passengers in a hull-like fashion, similar to an aircraft, hence the reference to "fuselage".
- The 1970 Imperial (Chrysler) Imperial Crown Series was available as this 4-door Hardtop and as 2-door YL23 Hardtop (254 units built).
- This fourth generation Crown (1969-1973) was assembled at the Jefferson Avenue Assembly, Detroit (Michigan - USA).
The train engine proved much more of a challenge than regular train cars, and I'm still not quite happy with it. There's just not that much space in a 5-wide system... With that in mind, any suggestions for improvements would be greatly appreciated!
New York Central Railroad Lima-Hamilton A-3174 6210, built September 1950 ( c/n 9433 ), at Englewood in Chicago, Illinois on March 14, 1965, Ektachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Lima-Hamilton did not have diesel locomotive model numbers, using instead a specification number, in this case A-3174. The specifications for this model were: a Hamilton Model T-89-SA four cycle 1200 horsepower turbocharged eight cylinder diesel prime mover, coupled to a Westinghouse 499A main generator powering four 362D traction motors. The electrical equipment was supplied by Westinghouse. The trucks were General Steel Castings Type B Swing Bolster with 40 inch wheels geared for 60 mph. It carried 800 gallons of fuel, 40 cubic feet of sand, 145 gallons of lube oil, 225 gallons of engine cooling water, and 800 gallons of water for the steam generator, which produced 1600 pounds of steam per hour. They weighed 247,500 pounds as built. According to the book, "Diesel Locomotive Rosters", The Railroad Magazine Series, 16 of this model were built for the NYC as # 5800-5815, renumbered 6200-6215, classed as DRSP-5a on the NYC. However, #'s 6200-6204, 6206-6209, 6212-6215 had the steam generators removed, were re-classed as DRS-5a, and thus weighed 240,800 pounds, and produced 60,200 pounds of tractive effort. As far as I can tell, these were the only examples of the A-3174 built by L-H.
