Remarks & Notes

The 9:30am "Royal Gorge Route" excursion returns to Cañon City with an F7A/B duo shoving eastward. The train has just resumed its journey after the customary 10 minute stop at the "hanging bridge" deep within the gorge. This stop is a long-standing tradition for passenger trains, started decades earlier by the Rio Grande. The Royal Gorge suspension bridge sits 955ft. above the river, which was quite shallow at the time of this photo due to an ongoing drought.
