Rio Grande Zephyr West Bound in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, April, 1983.
Tourists arrive and depart at the train station in Glenwood Springs in this image made in the month the Rio Grande Zephyr service was discontinued in April of 1983. The arrival of this storied train always drew attention when it arrived in Glenwood Springs, as most in town were aware of how special it was–the only privately operated mainline passenger service remaining in the United States. AMTRAK had taken over all other intercity passenger service by 1983. A great deal of nostalgic sadness overtook this small mountain town when the Rio Grande Zephyr service ceased, along with its bright orange-yellow vintage engine and the classic stainless steel Vista Dome cars–never to be seen again at this station. Taken from the Grand Avenue Bridge with a 4×5 Speed Graphic Camera equipped with a 150mm f5.6 Schneider Symmar lens on Kodak film.
