I'm not sure about the first one (Truckee maybe?), but the 2nd and 3rd are Blue Canon.  The video is WB approaching and crossing Switch 9- exactly where I was shooting #6 this afternoon.

Haven't seen snow depths like that so far this year.

That much snow down below the 2,500 foot level to Colfax is indeed usual these days.

The 1st one is Gold Run, the next two are at Long Ravine Trestle(s), and the last bunch are, of course, at Colfax.
That's a pretty low snow!

I like your two series of photos, they are just like being on a trip.
No, they are not great photgraphs, but combined they just about perfectly tell the story of your round trip to Reno, just the way any of us would have seen it out the windows.
An original report, thanks for sharing.
It was fun to see those Mof W crews and ballast cars too, they bring the railroad to life.

The 6-finger glove in the first photo is intriguing.  Don't see many of those!  :)

Obviously a descendent of 'Prince Humperdinck' still hiding from descendants of 'Inigo Montoya'
