You can see people in the cab!  An almost impossible task with the Genesis engines!

Another fantastic keeper photo!  If operating normally on Friday, April 14 I'll be on CZ 5 and Sunday April 16 I'll be on CZ 6.  Hope you are photographing one or both of those days.  Will there still be any snow at the higher elevations?

There will be as much or more snow in April. Send me a reminder PM and I'll see if I can accommodate you.

Yeah, I just walked out to wait for it- what's the back story?
I heard there's a group of nearly 300 on board?
PlayStation?
What in the world IS this?

​If you do a web search for "train jam" you will get all the details.    It's a very interesting story.
