Yes, here is another photo taken from the Heber Valley Railroad.

This shot is of locomotive 1011 which formally belonged to the Union Pacific Railroad and is the only active locomotive in their fleet that has not been painted into the Denver, Rio Grande and Western inspired Orange and Black paint scheme.

My last couple of entries I shown some photos from the Heber Valley Railroad that I took before our train left. What I have not show you is a photo of our actual train so here it is.

The train included the former Union Pacific locomotive, caboose, two open air cars, an enclosed coach, and a combine car that was used as a snack shop.

When we first go on we sat in the enclosed coach but very shortly I moved out to the first open air car and stayed there for most of the trip.

On the way back the caboose was at the end of the train I spent a majority of the trip on the back platform which was a great place to take pictures.

Is That Duct Tape on our Coach???

Here is another shot that I took at the Heber Valley Railroad last Saturday.

While waiting for some of my wife's family to show up, I took a walk around the grounds and of course had to take pictures.

While I didn't notice it at the time, when I looked at this picture full sized I noticed that the corner of the roof closest to the camera is covered with duct tape. If you look closely you can also see that there is more duct tape along the roof line.
