EDITORS COMMENTS
Crossing the Timber Line, Pikes Peak Railway" is an evocative and captivating photograph from the 19th century, showcasing an historic moment in the development of transportation in the American West. This stunning, coloured print, available through Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to an era of adventure and progress. The image depicts a train crossing the timber line on the Pikes Peak Railway, a feat that marked a significant milestone in the railway's construction. The train, with its smokestacks billowing steam into the crisp mountain air, cuts through the dense forest, leaving a trail of wood chips and debris in its wake. The vibrant colours of the print bring the scene to life, with the rich greens of the trees, the deep browns of the logs, and the bright reds and blues of the train's engine and carriages. The railway, which opened in 1891, was a marvel of engineering at the time, stretching over 14,000 feet in length and reaching an altitude of 14,115 feet at its summit. The journey to the top was a thrilling experience for passengers, who were treated to breathtaking views of the Rocky Mountains and the surrounding landscape. This nostalgic, picturesque photograph evokes a sense of wonder and awe at the ingenuity and determination of the people who built the railway, and the courage of those who dared to make the journey to the summit. It is a reminder of a bygone era, when the world seemed a little more magical and the possibilities seemed endless. In conclusion, "Crossing the Timber Line, Pikes Peak Railway" is a beautiful and historically significant photograph that captures the essence of the American West during the late 19th century. It is a must-have for anyone with an interest in history, transportation, or the natural beauty of the Rocky Mountains.
