Their smiling faces and actions add much to the picture and give a touch of novelty never before attempted. The engine ahead is seen to puff and pant up the heavy grades and around the short curves, dashing into black tunnels and along narrow shelves hewn out of solid rock. Snow capped mountains, grassy valleys and monster rock formations are seen. The start is made at Cripple Creek where the greatest mines are quickly seen in a short panorama of the richest part of the district. Then the climb over Hoosier Pass, through Cathedral Park and down the eastern slope of the Rockies until Point Sublime and the great view of the plains is seen. Photographically it has no equal. A short panorama of the busy depot scene in Colorado Springs closes the subject which is easily the greatest of its kind ever attempted. Written by Selig Catalog (1907) See less
