I love your videos, thank you for sharing them.
You are so welcome!
So the term Loop used here does not imply beginning to end circle. Its used to describe the corkscrew of the track on the mountainsides where the track loops back over itself with high bridge. The elevation change from Georgetown to Silverplume is 640 feet. This was a revolutionary way to gain elevation for slick metal wheels on slick rail.
Thanks for sharing 😊
Glad to see you in my home state, usually I watch your videos when I want to visit your home state.
Oh! So much detailed information. Thanks so much, we will plan to do the ride.
You're welcome!
I looooooooooooove it! Always we go by and i was wondering how cool it is so now for sure we will stop by , thanks guys 🤗
You're welcome.
Thank you love old trains and mountains
Glad you enjoyed
If you ever go east, you should take a ride with Great Smoky Mountaims Railroad.
Have reservations for September 26th. Hoping the fall colors are popping. Thanks for the preview
Great video again guys. As well as wanting to visit Yellowstone, I've always wanted to visit the Rockies. Probably because as a child I loved "Grizzly adams" and I'm in my 60s plus I live in the UK.
You should!
Thank you! There are very few videos about this and we have already plan to go!
Have fun!
I did try , it’s amazing ride and the staff are fantastic…by the way nice video😃
Thanks a lot 😊
We were waiting for the train to pick us up at station. As it returned over bridge, some of the passengers car fell off track. No one hurt, but they had to walk walk back. Our trip was canceled.
When??
