Below
left is the Grand Canyon Railway Polar Express Train scenic area.
Between MP 18 and MP 19, I
collected a 2 minute video. Parts are
good.
The GCR crosses a somewhat flat
plain. Some tall mountains are
seen in the distance. Word was given by the NRHS vest people that
the morning run by would be coming up soon.
Tired of taking pictures, I handed
my camera off to someone who took
photographs of me. Conductor Bill was standing nearby and I asked
him to stand by.
Bob Kittel surveying the scene as
the train was backed up. Robbin
elected to stay on board and was peeking at us from the Zimmerman
baggage car.
It took several minutes for the
Grand Canyon Limited to back up, so why
not take those photos and show them as if the train was coming towards
us? It was impressive both directions.
