Cumbres and Toltec: From Chama to Cumbres Pass

Pulling in at the top of Cumbres Pass after the long, hard grade coming up from Chama, New Mexico on the Cumbres and Toltec Railroad.

Heading across some open alpine meadows on the way to Cumbres Pass.

Looking out into the valley full of aspens changing color.

Coming around a tight spot on the way up to the pass with our double-header train.

Into a thicket of golden aspens.

The fancy parlor car was deserted because everyone was outside in the observation cars enjoying the scenery.

There once was a water tower here for a movie set that used to be in this meadow.  Not anymore.

The two of us on the train!
