Plot.
Georgetown is a silver-mining town at 8,500 feet near the crest of the Rockies. Hooked somehow to the rear of a four-car passenger train is a camera that pans the scenery and, when the train goes around curves, looks ahead to see the engine and passenger cars: the passengers wave hundreds of white handkerchiefs out of the train's left-side windows for the benefit of the camera. The town comes into view; the tracks are above the town, so the camera looks down on dozens of modest rooftops as it pans the area.

Wiki.
The film was directed by an unknown man. The tourist descent dates back to 1884, after the virtual desertion of silver mines, and still exists today as a vintage attraction, proposed with the same steam locomotives.
