Steam Train Crossing Alpine Saddle in Winter Haze in along a switchback approach near Zona Sur, La Paz

Steam Train Crossing Alpine Saddle in Winter Haze

by Kaylee Beasley

Warm golden light spills across a rugged alpine saddle where a vintage steam train navigates a sharp switchback near Zona Sur in La Paz. Low-hanging clouds drape the distant peaks in soft gray, while the deep winter air leaves the surrounding scrubland bare and brittle. Thick white steam rises from the locomotive, blending momentarily with the atmospheric haze before drifting upward. Long, dark shadows stretch across the tracks and rocky embankments, showing the low angle of the sun before sunset. The iron rails gleam faintly against the dry earth, leading toward the train's smokestack as it cuts through the misty twilight. at the edge reveals a faint reflection of the engine on a wet patch of gravel beside the track.
