Verde Canyon Railroad

Hi All,

Morning rain washed out our birding plans so we spent time exploring the funky town of Cottonwood.

In the afternoon we took the train through Verde Canyon.

This scenic tourist railway has been operating since the late 1990's
The FP7 Diesel locomotives were built in the 60's and originally worked in Akaska.

Across the trestle along the red rock canyon

And along the Verde River canyon

Then through the 650 foot tunnel

To more beautiful red rock canyons.

It was a fun three and a half hours.

Love,
