Check Out the Ridgway Railroad Museum!
During a recent trip to Colorado, we stopped at the Ridgway Railroad Museum in Ridgway, Colorado. Check out the Ridgway Railroad Museum with us!
The Rio Grande Southern Railroad was a narrow-gauge railroad which ran from the towns of Durango to Ridgway, Colorado. It was built by German immigrant and Colorado toll road builder Otto Mears. The RGS operated from 1891 through 1951 and was built with the intent to transport immense amounts of silver mining traffic that was produced by the communities of Rico and Telluride. On both ends of the railroad, there were interchanges with The Denver and Rio Grande Railroad, which would ship the minerals to smelters like the one in Durango.

The Denver & Rio Grande Western Tennessee Pass Line!
Просмотров 1,8 тыс.Месяц назад
In 1881, the Denver & Rio Grande Western Railroad (D&RGW) constructed a narrow gauge railroad over Tennessee Pass, first as a branch line to access mines near Red Cliff, Colorado, but by the mid 1880s the line became part of its extension to the Aspen area constructed in order to beat the Colorado Midland's standard gauge route to that rich mining area. In 1890, a new standard gauge line was bu...

It’s a beautiful afternoon on October 8, 2024. Many of the Aspen trees have shed their leaves, especially in the higher elevations, but closer to Chama, the gold is still vibrant. Looking down the Los Pinos valley, we see Cumbres & Toltec 489 turn north bringing the Antonito to Chama train home. Sometimes it will stop at the water tank, but today it continues up the 2 percent grade toward Cumbr...

Durango & Silverton: Durango to the Highline!
Просмотров 5992 месяца назад
As a videographer, you think about the shots you'd like to get. How do I shoot the Highline outside Rockwood, Colorado without a long hike or trespassing on the grade? It's a perfect mission for the Air 3 because it has great reception and endurance. This was shot on September 26, 2024 and 476 and 473 doubled headed out of Durango. We caught it at the Animas River Bridge, Home Ranch Siding, Her...
Glenwood Springs, Colorado!
Просмотров 3212 месяца назад
There was fierce competition between the Denver & Rio Grande Railroad (D&RG) and the Colorado Midland Railroad to be the first to serve the community of Glenwood Springs, Colorado. In the late 1880s, Glenwood Springs was booming. The first railroad to reach Glenwood Springs would score first dibs on the business. After two years of arduous construction and an estimated $2 million dollars, the D...

Thanks for sharing. It was awesome to see.
Thank you for watching!
I rode Goose #4 around the loop in October, 2021
Cool!
Szép videó!😀👍
Thanks!
Ah, this is nice to see. Takes me back to when I was there in July 2023. Such a great collection! I was lucky enough to have volunteer Larry come and show me around and inside the vehicles for my video. Motor 1 looks green in your pictures. I am SURE it was black when I saw it and I've always thought of it as black. Weird! Thanks for sharing this. 👍 Simon
I remember watching your video at some point. Nice job. You're lucky that Larry was around to talk to you. I remember 1 being dark green but it looks black in your video. Strange. Thanks for watching!
Hello Thomas, great video, with the K37 #493 and the diesel locomotive 101 in pairs. Thanks for showing it and a happy and healthy New Year 2025 to you and your family. Best regards Wolfgang
Happy New Year Wolfgang!
Great footage as usual! Thanks!
Thanks, David!
WTAF ?! , Diesels on the narrow gauge ?? This is pure B.S. The C&TS in Chama rules .
Any one want to tell him about the Cumbres & Toltec's new gorgeous diesel?
@@Big_Diehlno, no we aren’t
C&T just bought a diesel but they don’t plan to use it for excursion trains.
@@Big_Diehl I know they have a Diesel , but they will not use it on the head end of a revenue run .... D0&S has become Disneyland , Chama is the real thing.
@@YardLimit Correct , only for work xtras as it should be . D&S is a new Disneyland , C&TS is the real deal...
Nice video, but I much prefer steam whistles.
Everyone does
Awesome and the aerial footage is amazing.
Thanks Dom!
MAN !!! At 3:25 to 4:08 in, I couldn't help but notice that the rail here appears to be "spaghetti"-like, (like other Tourist Railroads) and how 493 is "weaving / Rock and Rolling" while going down the road. This would concern me greatly as "she's" probably only doing 25-30 mph, but still...I personally wouldn't ride behind some Class 1's in this Country for that matter. I'm just wondering IF this is a "Construction in progress", (by laying new - straight rail), or is it a Man-Yana, (sp)? kind of thing?
Top speed is about 15. The track is exaggerated by the zoom lens.
That is simply the tele making it look bad , this railroad is built very well .
An interesting catch. I would imagine it's cheaper than having a second steamer ready to double head.
Sad but true. Happy New Year Ian!
Szép videó lett!😀 Nyomtam egy nagy like!👍
Thank you!
Usually there would be another steam locomotive for the double header that leaves with the train from the depot, you usually never see this kind of doubleheader though. Thanks for catching this! very interesting.
Being unique was interesting. Two steam locomotives would have been better but I’m glad I got this.
Two steam locomotives are usually seen in the summer season, that’s arguably the best time to catch them
What a great job in creating this realism!
Thank you!
I have an e-clip off the bnsf transcon they are big and heavy spring steel
Ngl, I came up with my own fantasy railroad in the US, being called the PSFS (Pensacola & Santa Fe Southern) without knowing this railroad existed. The PSFS would have a fleet of F7 passenger and freight locomotives, E6 Passenger Locomotives, ES44DC Freight and (Fantasy) Passenger Locomotives, SD70ACe Yard Locomotives, GP38-2 Yard Locomotives, AlCo PA1 Locomotives, and even some (Fantasy) reproduction Baldwin Sharknose Locomotives. The line would have a passenger route from Barstow, CA to Pensacola, FL while sharing freight lines on the same route with transfer yards in San Diego, CA and Mobile, AL. Three major yards would include Barstow, CA, Pearl, MS, and Pensacola, FL. There would be subdivision off the mainline. But I discovered this railroad 8 months after coming up with it.
Very cool!
Hello Thomas, a beautiful Christmas train, thank you for sharing. Unfortunately, things don't always go so peacefully. Yesterday evening, December 20th, 2024, at the Christmas market in Magdeburg, a scene where a person drove into people with his car and so far five people have lost their lives and 200 have been injured, some seriously. I don't know what goes on in such people's minds. I wish you a peaceful and contemplative Christmas. Best wishes, Wolfgang
I saw that horrible tragedy on the news here. As you know, we have many similar situations in this country every day with guns. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Awesome. Merry Christmas🎄
Merry Christmas to you too!
Szép videó!😀👍 Merry Christmas!🎄
Merry Christmas!
🐉 🚂 🎅 Nice video, Merry Christmas!
Thanks! You too!
Santa Fe locomotive 2926 is handsome and spectacular example of steam power, I am eager to see this engine operate in excursion service as the 2926 hasn't had a serious long distance mainline run in about 70 years.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Seeing amtrak go into emergency is pretty rare
Hello Thomas, a very nice Christmas train on the Cumbres and Toltec narrow gauge railway. Beautiful shots of the train and the landscape. Thank you very much for the video and have a nice pre-Christmas week. Best wishes from Germany Wolfgang
Thank you, Wolfgang! I hope you have a great week also!
nice share new friend
Glad you enjoyed it!
Awesome video! I have to say, I love the wreath around the headlight especially, it really gives 489 some extra Christmas spirit. Also, I see 492 is next to 483, any new updates on the restoration?
Thank you. 492 will be going to Monte Vista, Colorado to be restored. It will take a couple years.
@@YardLimit Alrighty, good to know, thanks very much for the update!
Awesome, it was great to watch. Amazing scenery and fantastic sound. Beautiful pictures.
Thank you! It was a great day to film.
Nice video! Winter along that line looks so beautiful, I wish they ran more this time of year.
I agree. A little snow would have been nice too!
@@YardLimit watch there be snow in Chana next weekend but nothing in antonito bc that’s how life is lol
Thanks again Thomas, another great video. I love the coal trains better. Love the double header too, lots of black smoke. ❤️❤️
These guys were putting on a show!
@ A great show it was too.
Good morning Thomas. Another right video of #489. I guess #489 got fixed on the fuel oil. Thanks again, I’ll be watching for next year’s videos. 👍👍👍
489 has been doing the bulk of the work recently. Seems that there are no problems.
@ Thanks 🙏
Thanks enjoyed the video of the Christmas Train. Great photography work. 👍👍👍👍
Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
@ It’s rare to see three videos from you. I thought the trains 🚂 were closed for the year. I like B&W lead in. 👍👍👍👍
Couldn't resist the Christmas train.
@ Thanks appreciate your effort to take the trip down there. 👍👍👍
Hello Thomas, a great freight train with stock wagons and open freight wagons and the steam locomotive as a pusher. Brilliantly filmed, thank you for the great video of my favorite railway line, the Cumbres and Toltec narrow gauge railway. I wish you and your family a wonderful pre-Christmas period and happy holidays. Best wishes, Wolfgang
Thank you!
Rest in peace 161 Youll forever be remembered
Awesome, amazing sound and wonderful surroundings.
Thanks, Dom!
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Great video, Thanks for sharing, I need to get back there and ride the train,
I hope you get to ride it soon!
That was a great video in a modern day of Diesel locomotives hauling steel cars! The sound of steam whistles echoing in the woods was SOOoo soothing!! It reminded me of when I was working on a Steam Train museum in Western Washington!!!
There aren't any diesel locomotives in this video.
I think He is saying that in the diesel locomotives era we are in, it’s nice to see steam and hear the whistle.
@YardLimit <Duh!! You obviously didn't read what I said! I was being nostalgic about Steam over Diesel power!!!
It's definitely an unbelievable train videography 👍 Greetings from India 🇮🇳
Thank you!
Wunderschöne Aufnahmen 👍👍🇩🇪👼🫶🙏
😎
Wow
Sounds kind of like Soo Line 1003 there!
I wonder what was the last COMMERCIAL freight load was in those reefers and to who and where?
Not sure about the reefers, But I think the last freight was in 1970.
The last freight was actually towards the end of 1968. There is a nice article in TRAINS about it. That last year the Railroad had only sent round trip 5 trains over the pass between snow melt off and September of that year. They weren t even plowing it through the winter at that point anymore.
Thanks for the info!
I rode the C&T the week before on the last week of passenger operations. Man if I'd known this was running .... but would already be back in the UK. Cant beat this route and was happy with the recordings that I managed
Glad you got to ride it and visit the US.
Magnificent and scenic video!! Like 102, new sub from Spain 👀👀
Thank you very much!
Fantastic compilation!!
Thank you!
Crazy amount of slippage near Lobato! Awesome to see that long reefer in a consist as well, it's such a unique car for the narrow gauge.
Early morning and the rails were wet. That reefer is cool. It was recently restored by the Friends of the Cumbres & Toltec.
Hello Thomas, A beautiful video of a photo freight train on the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad. I love this railroad with its great steam locomotives. Thank you for the fantastic video and have a nice first Advent.✨ Best wishes from Germany. Wolfgang
Thank you, Wolfgang! I never get tired of this railroad!
Szép videó!👍😀
