| Subjects: | Silverton Railroad (Colo.); ; Railroads--Colorado--Curves and turnouts--Pictorial works; Corkscrew Gulch (Colo.) | |
| Notes: | Railroad tracks in the mountains leading to a covered turn table or roundhouse so that a train can in essence turn a switchback. The hillside to the left is cleared of trees and there is some snow cover on the mountain peaks in the background. The Center also has a smaller copy print here of the original photoprint. | |
