Western Railroad Discussion > Donner's east slope some random shots.Date: 09/01/14 12:10 Donner's east slope some random shots. Author: alpine6 Here are some random shots from this summer from the east slope of Donner.
1. An east bound manifest with UP 7381 pushing on the rear meeting a no grainer at Floriston. 2. A signal at Floriston. 3. A no grainer east bound at Shed 47 this shot was taken from above the old station of Lakeview. Date: 09/01/14 12:18 Re: Donner's east slope some random shots. Author: alpine6 4. The old signal bridge at Lakeview.
5. Another search light bites the dust. 6. I liked the shot but just not the same with the new bridge. Date: 09/01/14 12:26 Re: Donner's east slope some random shots. Author: alpine6 7. UP 8598 East at Stanford with the old and new signal bridges.
8. The same with the old bridge. 9. An into the sun shot of the same train entering the Horseshoe curve in Coldstream Canyon. Thanks for looking. Date: 09/01/14 14:11 Re: Donner's east slope some random shots. Author: ns1000 I LIKE Pic 3!!

Certainly before winter arrives, should we actually decide to have one this year. Date: 09/01/14 20:16 Re: Donner's east slope some random shots. Author: alpine6 Here are a few more. I will try to get some more photos too post of the rest of the old signals before they are gone.
1. From the same spot above Lakeview, on a clear day you can see trains in Truckee starting up the grade. Just a little four wheeling to get there but great spot for afternoon photos. 2. The new bridge just east of the Big Hole near at Eder. 3. These are the signals that the new bridge replaced in the east portal of the Big Hole. Some of my favorite on Donner. |
