F&CC Mainline Entering Apple Junction

This is the F&CC mainline ducking under the high dead-end trestle called "Overview Trestle" on the railroad. At this point, the F&CC mainline is traversing the Durango & Silverton-type high line along the edge of the canyon to the left.The lower level track seen in the backgroud is the old abandoned mainline of the F&CC and what used to be the station that served the Cripple Creek area before the Cripple Creek District Railroad branchline was built. The upper teo levels of track are parts of the Cripple Creek District Railroad tracks serving the Cripple Creek area.

The top two levels of track is the Cripple Creek District Railroad trackage serving the various mines and log camps of the District.
