Hello and welcome Norm.

Thanks for the kind words, mate.

Nice Picture! Hope your camera didnt fall off the rail as she thundered by.

My cam was on a tripod - unopened - straddling the rail so that I could bring it as low as I could to pick up the headlight reflection in the rail as best I could.

#2860 was doing' what she was meant to do best in that image. I was able to frame the train in the road signals as well, which was lucky.

Welcome to the group.

Had a very enjoyable trip through the Rockies in 1999. Would love to do it with steam!

Best wishes,

John

#2816 - not a Royal Hudson (2820 to 2864) - does steam runs around the mountains from time to time.

She has been to Vancouver this year. I do not know prices or how to go about riding behind it, but she does put on a good show when she is around.

She is not owned by the C P Rail, so I will keep a lookout for a website for it and post it.

There are some interesting ideas to think about in there.
