Snowy Soda Springs - Donner Pass
Author: SierraRailfan

Two of my favorite shots from a quick trip to Soda Springs on Donner Pass in a pretty decent snowstorm.

Enjoy.

Nice shots! Hopefully it will start to put a dent in the drought they're having out there.

Great pictures, you can feel the cold coming off the Amtrak picture.

That baggage car is probably on its last winter, maybe even its next to last month in service.

Nice pics. Somehow, snow reduces the 'crap factor'.

If you go trackside and wait for a train... well, better enjoy the scenery. I live a mile from the #1 mainline and they're few and far between. Lived inSo Cal and went to Cajon a lot...sure spoiled me.

Now that represents Christmas, great pics and I'm in agreement with the guys, the shot of Amtrak No. 6 takes the cake!
