From my to do folder.

From Chama to Osier for a Prime Rib Dinner and then a moonlight ride back to Chama. Interesting light when a train does not leave Chama until after 5pm.

Hey Roger, I hear that Jeremy Garcia was the engineer on that train. If so, it is great to have him back.

Roger, thanks for the great pics! It was a enjoyable evening with 110 onboard. Everyone had a wonderful time and Stephen Flowers crew did an outstanding job with the prime rib and cod dinner. The weather was fantastic and it was great having Jeremy at the throttle. We look forward to our 2013 "Moonlight & Wine Tasting" Train!

Roger,
That''s gorgeous lighting in the shot of the train on the Los Pinos trestle.
Also, did you take the shot of the train on the S-curve near MP334? I was on the D work session's tree/brush crew and we did some work about a mile eastbound from Cresco, and I'm wondering if that's the area where you shot the train.
