Train Trip through the Rockies

Here is a scene from a film shown today in the independent dining room. The title was, "Train Trip through the Rockies". It took us through the Rockies east of Denver and then on west to Salt Lake City, Utah. In addition to showing the scenery there was coverage of the kitchen, dining room and vista window cars. We had taken this very trip a few years ago to attend a SWCSA meeting in Salt Lake City. The construction of the railroad would have been a major project during the time it was done. I assume there is a continuing amount of maintenance to keep the lines operational. I'm not sure if the "vista dome" cars are still operational. I recall some discussion of their being phased out.
