Two years later scenery nears completion

Here are some photos taken by Kenneth Finnegan http://kennethfinnegan.blogspot.com/ in January 2012.  What a difference a couple of years makes! 


The Summit County's main traffic generator is coal from the three large mines.  Below is the New Church Mine

Here is Weber Coal.

And finally Union Fuel.

Lets follow along with #3 the morning local between Park City and Echo.  We pace #3 as she steams out of Coalville.

Here we see passenger #3 crossing a short trestle...

 ... before arriving at Grass Creek.

Upon leaving Grass Creek #3 heads across the high bridge at Echo Reservoir on its way to Echo.

Meanwhile workers at Park City's Tri-state Lumber wait for the train.

Here a train heads down the Monarch branch to set out coal loads at US Steel's coke facility.

 Then the 2-10-2 crosses a small creek enroute to the Monarch silver mine.

Here we have arrived at the Monarch mine.

Near the mine is a stock pen.
