A westbound Union Pacific coal empty climbs out of the great plains working upgrade leaving Leyden, Colorado, as the sun rises on January 23, 2005. This location is at mile 14.5 miles west of Denver on the railroad’s former Rio Grande Moffat Tunnel Subdivision.
A continuously growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome and seldom-seen beauty of the railroad world from the dimming of day to dawn's early light! From dusk to dawn, trains roll on! (I'm still finding gems of sunset-to-sunrise surprises!)
