Aspen brought the fireworks on the Cumbres Toltec railroad line this weekend.
A partly cloudy sky highlights a rock face covered in conifer and bright yellow aspen. A steam train changes ahead surrounded by yellow aspen. The Los Pinos River flows through a canyon with dramatic clouds above. Sheer rock wall serves as backdrop for orange-tipped aspen.

in continuing the theme of "photos I got on my vacation of trains on curves",
A steam train rounds a bend reasonably high on a mountain, with a roughly 45 degree slope on either side. Cumbres & Toltec K-36 #488, nearing Cumbres Pass, curves to go around a mountain before its final approach. Visible train cars include four coaches and a concession coach w/ a wheelchair elevator door, with the first coach behind the locomotive having a different roof to the rest. On the far left of the picture, the hand of someone leaning out of the train can be seen holding a mostly empty bottle of Coca Cola. Directly beneath and beside the train is a small retaining wall, holding up the shape of the ground below the tracks without needing to add a massive dirt fill along the hill. Above and slightly in front of the train is a distinct rock feature, with notable rock walls / cliffs, creating a prominent and striking divide between the left side of the photo where the mountain is close to the camera, and the right where the mountains are distant and a valley can be seen.

These are Rio Grande Class K36 steam locomotives and they are turning 100 this year! To mark the occasion, here are some pics of myself (for the most part) with some of these beautiful steam engines on both the Durango and Silverton and Cumbres and Toltec Narrow Gauge Scenic Railroads. Happy 100th!

Yeah, the mountains towns here are nice. I haven't been to Georgetown (yet), but I hear it's a good time. I have been on the Cumbres & Toltec, Durango & Silverton, and the Royal Gorge railroads. They're all great trips.
