Rio Grande Zephyr Engine No 5771 West of Glenwood Springs, Colorado, April 1983
Price range: $899.00 through $1,299.00

Last East Bound run Denver and Rio Grande Zephyr, nr. Glenwood Springs, Colorado, April, 1983.
Positioning my 4×5 camera just beyond the east end of the Chacra Bridge in South Canyon, seven miles west of Glenwood Springs, I captured EMD Engine Number 5771 as it crossed this bridge for the last time.
Taken with a Calumet 4×5 view camera equipped with a 150mm f5.6 Symmar lens, only black and white film could be used for this photograph, as dusk was quickly approaching. No large format color film was light sensitive enough to result in a successful photograph.
I had only one chance to get exposure and focus correct before the train passed.
Tonality and sharpness of this image are exceptional
