The GS-4 was the most beautiful steam engine that ever touched the rails.

Back from durango, and boy was it a great trip. Train was pulled by K-28 #473. The caboose was 5050, and the weather was great and sunny except for a random 1-hour rain shower (mostly drizzle). There were some real great photo shoots/run-bys and a rare night time photo shoot.
I got a whole bunch of videos im in the process of getting on the computer and up to youtube. Ill post links soon as I get them up.
As I dont have a photobucket or similar account, the pics will take longer to get up as Ill concentrate on getting videos up first.

Im going to the Durango and Silverton Fall Photographer's Special this weekend for the first time, and staying the night in silverton, returning the next day. Also was offered a caboose upgrade for $30 per ticket. Not sure if i will, but it sounds like a deal, depending on seating.
Has anyone done this trip in the previous years? If so, how was it? Also, I looked up the caboose but couldnt find much info, but I was interested to see the seating arrangement, and if there was seating at the top to look over the while train.
Videos and pics will be uploaded after I come home! (I will have to make a photobucket account for pictures.... )
