A picture of Cumbres & Toltec steam locomotive #487 (One of the two locomotives that are heard in the recording.), idling somewhere along the railroad's line in Antonito, Colorado.
This sound effect can be found on SDC Sound Effects Library, which was made by SoundDogs. It's very likely this sound was recorded at the Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad located in Chama, New Mexico, as the whistle heard at the beginning is the 5 chime whistle used on steam locomotive #487.
