Gentlemen, Savor this!

I present you with an unpublished view of the Palisades.

Sorry,Chris,that one has been around for quite some time

[Rick Steele]

Great Shot Chris, I like that one. Wouldn't you have liked to have been riding in that Pullman on the rear?

Ah, now we need to wait for a Google time machine....

That photo is on p13 of the DSP&P Pictorial.

[Chris Walker]

Drats.  Good job Robert for spotting that in your DSP&P Pictorial.

Still one very nice picture that isn't in any of the other books.  I was chuffed over the RPO.

Maybe I should show you this one then instead.

The RPO was built for the Colorado Central and later became one of the C&S 10-11-12 group according to  Hayes Hendricks.There's a picture of one of them in the picture of a DSP&P passenger train with 2 Congdon stacked engines entering the east portal of Alpine Tunnel.

Robert, have you found that second photo in your books yet?

The Palisade shot was also in the CRRA #12 The South Park Line by Chappell, Richardson & Hauck, and missed by me.  

[Jim Courtney]

But you can't magnify pictures in books and get this much detail!

[Chris Walker]

Much agreed, Jim!  The full view, full enlargement is so much better.

[Robert McFarland]

Now find the Fisher rail joiners in your second photo.

[Jim Courtney]

You mean these??



You've made my point, Robert!

[Jim Courtney]

Ah, now we need to wait for a Google time machine....


I believe that is a new App for the Apple watch.
