D&RGW in San Luis Valley

The pictures show the South Fork local passing Zinzer, Sugar Junction and Pleasant Valley Lumber just outside Monte Vista. They are taken in April 2005. I'm currently reworking the Alamosa yard. I have decided to rebuild the complete yard with dual gauge track. I took this decision after I bought my first narrow gauge steam engine. The buildings are still mock-ups. I make drawings in the computer, print them with a color laser printer on Letter sized label which makes it very easy to put it on to card board. When I'm satisfied with the result can I build them in styrene and detail them.

One crew working the South Fork local. The yard in Sugar Junction is not built jet. The cars for San Luis Central is left at and picked up from the wye tracks. The Alamosa crew in the forground seems to be puzzled by Something.	DRGW487 just delivered. It still awaits painting. It's a Fuji with a Lenz Gold series decoder. Works great!
