Pacific Limited Cheyenne Wyoming 1933

Postcard photo of Union Pacific steam locomotive #7007 pulling train #112, the Pacific Limited east of Cheyenne, Wyoming. The photo was taken by noted railroad photographer en:Otto Perry. Perry earned his living as a mailman in Denver; photographing trains was a hobby he pursued for many years. Perry was also known to travel outside of the Denver area to photograph trains.
Like many other railfans who take photos, Perry had prints made up as postcards and used a ink stamp to identify their work as these photos were shared with others who also had a hobby of photographing trains.

Perry died in 1970, leaving his collection of train photos and negatives to the Denver Public Library.
