Remarks & Notes

Got Steam? The Durango & Silverton sure does! In fact, a quick visit to the DSNG yard has been known to cause serious cases of "Roundhouse Envy" among officials of other tourist railroads. In this scene, DSNG Mikado #482 steps out onto the Durango turntable as 4 of her stablemates look on. The DSNG has no fewer than 5 operable steam locomotives with a 6th one currently undergoing heavy maintenance. From left to right, we see K-36s #482, 486, 481, 480 and K-28 #478. The latter has some of her appliances removed and is the engine undergoing maintenance. The only engine not pictured here is K-28 #473, which was at the ash pit and out of view to the left at the time of this photo.

Good Light, Good Scenery, and a Train Album created by member Lee Kirchhoff	Album Views: 77,635
Landscape photography is difficult due to the challenge of combining good light and good scenery. Good railroad photography enters another level of complexity since it requires the first two while there is a train in view.
