Rio Grande Heritage Unit

After a doctors appointment in Greely, Colorado I headed over to the tracks to see what was going on. Just as I arrived I heard a north bound freight approaching. I stopped by the Greely Freight Station Museum and was surprised to see one of UP's Heritage units. I chased the train north out of town and got ahead of as it was slugging up a grade. I managed to gain a couple minutes on it and crossed over to the right side of the tracks. As the end drew near I was even more surprised to see a caboose on the end of a 90+ car train.

Ft. Collins Diamond

In the city of Fort Collins the BNSF runs through the center of town. Literally the tracks run up the middle of the street!


Just north of the street trackage is this diamond where the BNSF and the UP meet at grade.

While shooting the diamond a BNSF local snuck up on me! After they cleared the crossing I realised there was a UP light power move waiting to the east to cross.

Chasing UP 844 II !

This series of photos were taken in Nunn,

Colorado. The 844 made several trips on

this weekend from Denver, Co. to the annual

Frontier Days celebration in Cheyenne, Wyo.

Chasing UP 844 !

It has been almost a year since my last

update. Since my last post my family

and I relocated back to New York State.

I was finally able to get the print film I

shot out west developed! This is what I

got, some how I though the results would

have been more spectacular...
