This article from Classic Trains discusses a photo essay from the late 1960s that focused on the Denver & Rio Grande Western’s San Juan Extension, one of the last significant narrow-gauge operations in the United States. The essay, which featured photographs by John Gruber, captured the spirit of the narrow gauge and the people involved. The article also highlights the volume of photographs taken by Gruber during his visit and provides details about the slow and frequent stops made by the trains. The Center for Railroad Photography & Art has now processed Gruber's collection, revealing even more details about the narrow gauge. [Extracted from the article] |
