Rio Grande Articulateds, Part 2 39 Mins #SRP-RGA II $29.95 Part II - The Joint Line, The Royal Gorge, & Tennessee Pass Follows almost every class of articulated south from Denver as they surmount the 52 miles of unrelieved 1.42% grade to Palmer Lake. Views the Royal Gorge from cliff tops above and at river level below. Breathtaking panoramas of the Arkansas Valley, walled by the highest peaks in North America, follow as the 3600s work their way up a steady 1.50% to the 10,200 foot summit of Tennessee Pass. The big show begins when the direction is reversed at Minturn, the bottom of the eastbound 21 mile 2 to 3% grade. From there the camera follows freight and passenger back to the same summit - a rise of some 2400 feet. Has landslides in the Royal Gorge and the boiler explosion at Louviers. Some black and white. No Super 8. No talking heads. back
