UP 5898 and passenger special has come to a stop here in Bootlegger Canyon to set up for an official corporate photo op. The Cane Creek Subdivision was built between August 1961 and the end of 1962 by the Denver and Rio Grande Western. While no (public) passenger train ever traveled on the branch under Rio Grande, I am not sure if the railroad ever ran an officer's special train down the branch. It is certainly possible that this is the first time in history that a passenger train has run through Bootlegger Canyon!
