Railroad photograph

After an on-time 2pm departure from the top of Pikes Peak, we are looking out the front of our train as we make the steep descent down the three-rail cog railway. You can follow the path of the tracks down until they disappear around the bend in the distance. Amazing to consider that this railroad was originally built in 1889, and ran with steam engines for several years.
