Additional Details:

Because of its narrow confines the view from the bottom of the ROYAL GORGE is perhaps more exciting than from the top. Each daylight passenger train stops at the hanging bridge which is almost directly under the suspension bridge at the top as well as being almost directly at the foot of the incline railway. The combination of views of the high bridge overhead, the steep railway descending, the towering walls of the gorge on each side, the dashing river, coupled with the echo of the locomotive thru the gorge and the black smoke swirling up the great walls, is very effective.
