Osier is the train meet and lunch spot for the Cumbres and Toltec Railroad. The day is sunny with high wind. Temperature is 71. K-36 # 488 brings the train to Antonito followed by 489 with the train to Chama. I was not planning to be in Osier.I turned onto a paved road south of Antonito that heads in the direction of the railroad. After miles it was unpaved graded. Then the road became what mountain bikers call double track, a parallel rut, rocky, hilly, curly. Looking for a spot to turn, I fall into Osier. I buy lunch. Passengers, train crew, lunch personnel, a couple that drove, everyone is fantastic. The road to Osier is the railroad.
