2011 Toltec Gorge powered by #18. The exterior shoot is from June 15. Robert Black and I, we both chase the train to Antonito and back to Alamosa. Shown is my footage. Bob emailed great stills from this June day. With her new flues, drive train bearings, tires turned last year, wheel bearing rebuild before, handsome new cowcatcher, water free eco oil, #18 ran well. The ride shots are July 13.  The Toltec Gorge Limited is a connector service to the Cumbres and Toltec RR. The cars look terrific in their new paint. The train has a distinguished look in this scheme of classic Illinois Central RR colors. Thank you crew and staff for a great time on both these days, the work on #18, the new paint on the cars
