Amazing shot, Frank! Nicely done.

They say that there's a prototype for every thing, but the structure behind this train has me guessing. Is it a wind break or a snow fence, or both ? I had the chance to ride the D. & R. G. W. "Ski Train" and remember seeing the string of old coal hoppers that are welded to a land locked section of track, and serve as a wind brake. Also I have seen western snow fences, but nothing like what is on this trestle.. Thanks for this wonderful photo Frank.

Yes, it is indeed a windbreak.
