Grand Canyon Railroad - cn nutbar - 08-24-2011

Hello Everyone---in 1990,my wife Sharon and I took a trip to Arizona.One of the highlights of our trip was a train ride on the Grand Canyon Railroad from Williams Arizona to the edge of the Grand Canyon.Here's a few shots from that memorable day.

Wow. Much has changed. #18 is now running at a tourist line in Colorado. The GCR only runs steam during a few select weekends in the summer. The green Harriman coaches are rarely used anymore, being replaced by stainless steel cars.

When we were there the old coaches were being used on the Polar Express train. The FA diesels (ex VIA) were out and replaced by F40s.
