Silverton in Winter & Rotaries
28 Mins #SRP-460 $29.95

In three parts: First, “The Silverton In Winter.” A fairy tale come true! After decades of silence, the Silverton runs again in Winter, and with the big 480 series engines. Deep snow mantles Durango as 481 digs in for a run over the high line and up to Teft Spur. Second, “Rotaries on Cumbres”. Again, real honest-to-goodness Winter. The snow so deep in Chama they need the rotaries just to clear the yard. And all three: OM, OY, and OU, the only surviving narrow gauge snow fighters in the world - all three of them in pitched battles with the drifts on Cumbres. Third, all new, “Blizzard on Monarch Pass.” It’s been almost thirty years since the last steam engine worked Monarch Pass. In this tape 489 tackles the switchbacks all the way to the top in a howling blizzard.
