This album is for me to dream. Hopefully I will visit before it is too late.
Photos I would frame and hang on the wall
Album Views: 17,248
I've gone through the pix I have commented on or favorited and picked a few that I would frame and hang on the wall. So many good pix. This is the tip of the iceberg. Thanks to those who post all the great images on Railpix.
Rio Grande Narrow Gauge in the 60's
Album Views: 18,608
The DRGW narrow gauge was the last major steam operation in the U.S. The climb over 10,000 foot Cumbres pass was spectacular, with two engines handling 70 car trains. Hopefully these images convey some of the drama of mountain steam railroading.
La Trochita
Album Views: 9,253
The narrow gauge line to Esquel, Argentina, variously known as La Trochita, The Old Patagonian Express, or just the Esquel line, linked the remote villages of southern Patagonia with the outside world. It is amazing that the line still exists.
