Ron,
Getting this shot must have been an adventure in itself. Were you hanging out the window or shooting from the area between cars?

Hi Sherri,
Yeah it kind of was. There is a little platform between each car where they allow people to stand. I leaned out as far as possible to include as much of the hill side as possible.
Thanks,
Ron

It is really amazing to think about the weight traveling around on the side of those cliffs, let alone thinking about the guys that built that track! Looks like an amazing trip.

I agree Mark - it is really amazing to think it was built at the turn of the century with with few of the tools available today - it was built mostly with dynamite, hand tools and a whole lot of men.
