Hell of a Show - a photo on Flickriver

Hell of a Show

            After hitting a tree much farther down the hill causing a three hour delay, who knew what would be next. Turns out, I would get to see what happens next at this location when one of the coaches had locked brakes causing a small fire. Some friends and I had gone to this spot to get the signal bridge and articulation of 4014. Luckily, the train wasn’t stopped for long but just long enough to get another shot in the canyon before racing to Glenshire. Also notice the guy sitting on top of the signal bridge.
