I “Chased and Paced” the Winter Photo Mixed Freight Extra, pulled by the “Coal Burning” K36 #481 to Rockwood, Sunday 2/27/2022.
The consist included 2 box Cars, a “rail loaded” flat, a C&TSRR P-Box (converted box), 3 coaches, a concessions Car, and Caboose 0540. I caught up with the #481 coupling up at the depot and then headed to trout farm to catch the train crossing Main and the 1st Animas River crossing. The sun shining through the smoke made for an interesting Pace up the valley. Additional clips from the water stop and departure at Hermosa, trackside before the underpass, Shalona Crossing and leaving Rockwood. Goose 5 caught up with the train at Rockwood and I caught the departure.
