Nostalgia & History > BN, DR&GW, and RainDate: 11/22/05 16:50 BN, DR&GW, and Rain Author: MacBeau It was raining that day in 1989, just north of Palmer Lake and the action was a little too far off, so out came the 300mm CAT. Its still not a good clean shot, but sixteen years has added a historical aspect that almost overcomes the deficient quality.

No need to apologize, Mac. It's a wonderful old image and I'm greatful you posted it.

The Rio Grande train is on the northbound track.
