A Few OY Photos (Feb-Mar 2020)

Unread postby Jason Rose » Tue Mar 03, 2020 2:00 pm

Here are a few quick photos. These were taken with a "real camera" as opposed to my phone that I used for the "live" photos.

Enjoy.

Fantastic photos, Jason! Also, too, for those that have a Facebook account, photos are posted there by: Pete Lerro; Jerry Day; and the Narrow Gauge. Love Pete's video of where the snowman he built on the tracks in the Chama Yard, and then we watched the OY move and plow it down! Yup, that's Pete!

Thanks guys. This was certainly an experience-of-a-lifetime. It sure felt like we'd taken a step back in time.

The video should be out next week. Maybe sooner, but no promises.

Excellent job, Jason. Having grown up in Chicago, I can identify with your experiences of loosing boots and having frozen jeans.
