Grande Gold F's on the C&S - 1970
Author: valmont

Took this shot on Feb. 2, 1970 @ Boulder, CO ... this was C&S territory then, and train is northbound. I think back then the C&S called it westbound. D&RGW F's showed up on the C&S for a while, often during the fall sugar beet harvest,but usually with C&S or CB&Q power mixed in. Those impressive mountains in the background are called the Flatirons, and form the backdrop for the city of Boulder.

How sweet it was! Thanks for the great photo. Of all the flags I have seen fall over the years, I miss the Rio Grande the most.
