The “Royal Gorge Steam Special” was the last steam passenger train to operate over Tennessee Pass and through the 1000 foot deep Royal Gorge. The Tennessee Pass line has since been closed by the Union Pacific. This trip takes you over Tennessee Pass, through the Royal Gorge, and across Soldier Summit. Valhalla Video Productions was selected by the Central Coast Chapter of the National Railway Historical Society to produce this video. Valhalla had 5 camera crews on board and trackside capturing this exceptional trip through Colorado. Includes historic footage of D&RGW passenger trains in the Gorge.

Awesome footage of the 844 on an amazing route, probably never to happen again! Listen to the engine work in the mountainous territory!

Now celebrating its 20th anniversary, one of Americas most popular steam railroading events for 1997, would still bring back the nostalgia of the final run of this soon to be abandoned mainline between dotsero and canon city Colorado.
