Remarks & Notes

No doubt you’re aboard an Alco PA, looking back at your 4-car Train No. 9, Yampa Valley, passing through Fraser Canyon en route to Craig, Colo. the last day of 1966. The last two cars carried skiers to Winter Park, and those cars will be handed off to counterpart Train 10 wherever they meet, and then pick up those skiers and take them back to Denver. The round-end dome Observation car was acquired from the C&O.
