A few more Copper Basin Railway photos....
Author: ACR_Ted

I made another run down to the Copper Basin Railway here in Arizona and got a few more decent photos....

No. 1 is the OT-1 southbound at Ray Junction.

No. 2 is the same, just using a wider angle lens.

No. 3 is the same train just west of Kearny.

No. 4 The OT-1's power is running around its train at the Heyden dumper.

No. 5 is a cropped view from the next photo (No. 6).

No. 6 is the local just leaving Tunnel 2 westbound at Ray Junction.

No. 8 and No. 9 are of the OT-1 westbound at Tunnel 2 near Ray Junction.

I wonder how many years that operation will last.

Nice shots!  I can't believe that the Copper Basin engineers are tremendously pleased with the horns being placed right over their heads.

Excellent shots Ted.   We rode that line with the motorcar club in 1998 and had an interesting experience at the tunnel.  It seems a bunch of cattle were  either free range or had escaped their fence and were hanging out in the tunnel when the train came through.  One of the cows was struck and killed and it's rotting carcass was left alongside the track.  Needless to say, not a pleasant smell!
