It's all here. World-class photographic opportunities, steam locomotives pulling vintage freight and passenger cars that are original to the railroad, and the mountains. Here, trains are still made up with wooden cars whose origins date back as far as 1872. The crews will be in period dress, adding to the experience.
Each Winter Steam Spectacular Weekend starts mid-afternoon on the Friday and runs until around sunset on Sunday. There will also be a night shoot one of the evenings. The exact schedule of scenes varies each year. We adjust the schedule to take advantage of the weather conditions each weekend. Snow, sleet, or sunshine, expect an intense photo experience each Photoshoot Weekend.
Advanced reservations are usually necessary since these event almost always sell out. Attendance is strictly limited to keep the photo lines manageable. Do not drive to Ely unless you have a confirmed reservation.
