Stop 10 of our August 2010 Photo Special with #18 on the San Luis and Rio Grande Railroad is the Cuchara Valley. The railroad follows the Cucharas River to the junction with UP in Walsenburg, CO. The La Veta Mountaineer turns at La Veta,CO, for the return to Alamosa, CO. Cuchara Valley is an extra not seen on the regular run. We 200 plus photographers eat up this rare photo op. Shooting the railroad in its spectacular mountain run is impossible without an excursion like this. Or a helicopter.
