A bit more Colorado - with Steam!

Here's a short clip of Engine # 9, on the Georgetown Loop, a narrow-gauge railroad, serving the gold and silver mines, near SIlver Plume in the Rocky Mountains. Seen in the photo crossing the Devil's Gate High Bridge.

Number 9 - Georgetown Loop


Although lost to Google+ (Collection), scenes from this railroad and engine were the centerpiece of a diaspora* thread replicating what was on G+, a riff on all things "Number 9" from Beatles (#9) to Jethro Tull ("Locomotive Breath") to Mozart. MIA/RIP now. :-(

More Colorado, and Pike's Peak

Heading down, from the summit at 14,100 feet altitude. The engineer's view (and an aspiring engineer), down the mountain in one of the world's first & longest cog train runs.

I found some oldfavorites that were part of my Google + collection. The boy gazing out was the title shot.

More to come, but adding to a new album of old collecion (but fresh as new on 'film'!).
Flickr album (up to around 7 images now), is @
flic.kr/s/aHBqjD1zWK
With easy access to dozens of other albums of places and things (like birds, nature, cities). Enjoy.Good & safe weekend!
