First Train to Toltec Preview

This video is companion to Rocky Mountain Snowplow. We ride and follow a work train from Chama with engine 488 to where the rotary had stopped due to a huge boulder on the rails. Our train is there to remove the rock and repair the track. The second part of the video is a special 2-engine freight train through the snow, that we chartered just for you to enjoy. Engines 497, and 484 work Chama to Cumbres, then 484 helper to Osier...Snow on the tracks makes things interesting, and 484 derails trying to clear the snow near Osier. Later we continue to Rock Tunnel(Toltec Gorge), and are the first
train of the season to go this distance. Shot in 1997. Copyright 2006. Greg Scholl Video Productions
